Yes, that's the SWR measured with the ATU in bypass. That's the first setting we try in a "full search tune".
>From KAT500 Utility Help for the Operate page: Bypass VSWR The VSWR measured when the ATU was last in "bypass", an estimate of the antenna's "untuned" VSWR without any ATU inductors or capacitors. 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brian F Wruble Sent: Thursday, June 2, 2016 18:52 To: Elecraft Reflector <[email protected]> Subject: [Elecraft] KAT500 "Bypass SWR"? My KAT500 utility program shows the tuned VSWR, generally a low number, and it also shows "Bypass SWR". Is that a reading of the feed line SWR without the tuner in the circuit?
