With RF still applied, just hit TUNE within 5 seconds after the relays stop rattling in a normal TUNE operation.
Sometimes the sound of the relays rattling will be different because it's searching using finer steps of L and C values. 73 Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of KD8NNU Sent: Saturday, February 23, 2013 7:27 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] KAT500 fine tune question I just picked up a KAT500 tuner and connected it up and have been able to figure almost everything out. The only thing I can not get to work is a fine tune. The manual says start a tune cycle within 5 seconds to get this to work. However, I can not find the magic combination with proper timing to get it to fire off. I am wanting to make sure I know how to use all the tools in the toolbox, but I can not figure this one out. So I am sure that it is operator error. Otherwise, its operation is just as described and its rock solid. Now my W2 matches SWR with the radio and KAT500, this is a comforting feeling.
