Followed by this UPDATE: The test was to disconnect the remove the ATU board and connect the RF board directly to the antenna port - which worked OK - 1.2:1. With ATU installed and auto-tuned, I get 10 watts delivered to the load, so in my case the bypass VSWR is little high, but not really a concern. Since the ATU *is* installed, just tune it and everything works fine. I'm not sure I understand......are you saying with the ATU removed the VSWR is 1.2:1 and with it installed but not tuned it's 1.8:1 until the ATU "kicks in and does its job??? 72 de Jim R.
