Hi, If you put the KAT500 in AUTO mode, it will tune (if needed) just by applying power such as by hitting the TUNE button (hold XMIT) on the K3. But it is generally not advisable to stay in AUTO mode during SSB transmissions as it still has a small probability of starting a full tune cycle during voice transmissions.
