Hi Brian,
Just a thought, but given the KAT3 uses discrete components for C and L, what you are seeing may be as close as you can get. If you have calculated the tuner parameters from the Z you are seeing at the antenna going into the tuner, compare those with the discrete combinations possible in the tuner. Find the closest ones and then work backwards to the SWR value. SimSmith Smith chart software is great for this. The KAT3 schematic is included in the K3 schematics .pdf file.

I ran into a similar situation on 40 meters with an MFJ remote autotuner. Drove me nuts until I figured it out.

Good luck!

Brian, K0DTJ
