I am looking at remote antenna tuners. I have seen several controllers for the ICOM AH-4 tuner. My questions are about operation with a K3s. 1. Is there a limit to the time that 10w of RF can be sent to the AH-4 via the K3s Tune button? 2. All circuits specify a momentary switch, but does momentary mean 0.1sec, 1.0sec or 5seconds? Does the time matter? 3. When the complete signal returns from the AH-4 should the Tune RF or the momentary be terminated immediately? 4. Is there a combination of momentary or Tune RF that will damage the AH-4?
I have an AH-4 which worked with a home built controller for some months, and then became operationally intermittent and final fails to work at all. That makes me gun-shy, about buying another even though the AH-4 gets excellent reviews on eHam, almost all of which are based on an ICOM rig control.
