KX3 ATU manual option ?

vk4tux
I remember when I had my K3 there was a menu option to manual tune the
ATU. Is that possible on the KX3 ?

Adrian,

if I remember it well there is ATU BYP or AUTO available in the menu only.

With difficult loads you can tap ATU TUNE a second time within 5 seconds to
search for a lower SWR but manual tune function as it is available in K3 is
not implemented in KX3.

Modes L1-L8, C1-C8, and Ct are used to test the KXAT3’s relays and L-network
if I remember it well...
