K3 - KAT3 question

WB5BKL
I know that the KAT3 remembers matches by band, but does it distinguish
between the ANT1 and ANT2 positions?  

Just curious.

Indeed it does!   And, you can also have the KAT bypassed on either antenna
on a per-band basis.  I use this often when contesting.  Quite slick  ;>)

Essentially if you have an antenna that is resonant on 20 but you have
to tune it to make it work on 40 then you can have the ATU bypassed on
20 but enabled on 40.  When you're on 40 it will automatically recall
the settings on a per band/antenna basis but it will also remember
that on 20 you wan the ATU out of line.  Even cooler is that you can
still have it remember tune settings on 20 so that when you kick it
back in line poof its still got the recalled settings there.  Just
like it should. :)
