[Flexradio] ATU

2007-10-21 Thread Richard Stouffer
I have an ATU in my (brand) new 5000A, but I don't think it's working. The Power SDR does not have ATU in the menu at the top of the control panel- the manual says that it's only there when the ATU is installed. When I click on TUN the SWR indicator goes from 50.0:1 to some realistic looking

[Flexradio] ATU Problem Rev 9

I was having very good luck with Review 9 since I installed it until this morning. When I try to manually tune, power stay at whatever setting I have it on, i.e. if it was set at 50 it would stay set at 50. Before it would reset to 10 watts and stayed at that level until it was done

Hello Christoph, your observations of the leds seem to be ok I think. But where do you connect your SWR-meter ? The only way to check the correct function of the installed ATU is to observe the reflected power on the power-sdr multimeter. Set the TRX to a frequency on which you know that your
