KAT500 Feature Request

I would find it very useful to have a "Lock" button on the tuner, let me
explain.
A "Tap and Hold" on the Tune button would lock the tuning solution in place.
Then another "Tap and Hold" or moving the VFO would unlock it. This would
be very effective at times.

Thank you for your consideration and happy Easter.

Dan, KM6CQ

Hi
I think this is more or less in place now. If you put the tuner in manual mode,  it will only tune if you press tune and then hold this setting. When you tune to a different location it automatically will load the existing tune settings.
What I have done is a manual tune every 20 kHz or so and kept the tuner in manual. Thus it always "locks"  the settings.
