KAT500

[Jack Satterfield]

I am trying to tune a G5Rv on 4.7xx (MARS freq) best I can get with the
KAT500 is 2.65 swr,  which means cannot use the KPA500.

Using the K3 barefoot with ATU it tunes to 1.0 swr

Why is there such a big difference in performance?

First, chk antenna system.  Shouldn't be that different.

Also, what does KAT500 Utility say about the tune results?
