Thanks Jim.
It may have sounded ignorant, but I was concerned that there might be RFI
and RF in the shack issues, although I couldn't see how MFJ allowed for this
and they obviously don't. :-)
I will probably sell the MFJ 998 as it has shortcomings for me. It refuses
to tune out a bad SWR on some bands and although it
should tune with as little as 5 watts, it occasionally insists on QRO from
the IC7100 which is fixed at 10 watts for tuning.
Obviously the K3 is far superior and allows the user to specify a "sensible"
tuning power and it also seems to almost tune fresh air.

Does the KAT500 have the capability to tune a random wire, even just

Of course -- that's how almost any tuner would do it.
or are there other ways of achieving this?
No
