I experience this as well, only on 80 meters with the KPA500 in
operate. Always thought that it was RF getting into the KAT500 sensing
as I can usually back off to 300 Watts, force a KAT500 re-tune and continue.

This is exactly why I want to see this complete discussion in full
view. It is a problem here also - occurring often and without any
obvious cause. Putting the tuner in AUTO or in MANUAL does not stop it
from happening. The tuner does not seem to understand the term MANUAL.
My experience is from 75 meters - with no change in antennas - and
will occur on oft used frequencies in the middle of a transmission.
The tuner just suddenly decides it is time to make noises. I do not
use other bands and the antenna is a dipole that present no problems
to other rigs and tuners (read as nothing wrong with the antenna or
feedlines, which have all been completely checked).
AT the very least, I now know I am not alone with this problem.
