That’s the way it currently works. I.e., when you select AUTO, or MAN or BYP the KAT500 stays that way on all bands. I train my KAT500 on my three antennas on all bands, and then leave it in MAN mode after that. Bypass is a tuning solution when the SWR is low. When in MANual, the KAT500 still recalls the settings and antenna used last on that frequency/band. Works great.
Phil – AD5X “I'm using a KAT-500 and am surprised that when I change bands it doesn't remember whether it was in Automatic or By-Pass the last time it was on that band. If my KAT-500 is set to "Automatic" on one band then it's on Automatic for every band change. I'm hoping someone knows of a way to activate a memory feature on the KAT-500 so that each band can have it's own setting: Auto-Man-Byp.My reason for the "memory" is to eliminate unneeded relay tuning and chatter... as on some bands I simply don't need the KAT-500 and I don't appreciate it trying to tune every antenna that it thinks needs tuning. (as sometimes antennas don't need to be tuned... but the KAT-500 thinks otherwise) Thanks!” ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
