Ross, Who knows what the L and C values are that are in your T1 until you do a TUNE. The incication of a low SWR when the T1 is in bypass indicates that there is residual reactance when in non-bypass. Doing a TUNE should straighten things out. The settings are remembered by band, so do a TUNE on each band.
