Manual/Automatic is not used for overriding antenna selection, it turns
on or off the automatic initiation of a tune cycle when high SWR is
detected for the antenna that is currently selected. Many users will
tune each of their antennas on separate bands using automatic then
switch it to manual so that it doesn't attempt to retune that antenna
again.

I have a new KAT500 and am learning how to use it. I have set up the antenna
switching table in the expectation that the table will be followed when I'm in
Automatic mode. However, I find that the antenna switching table is also in
effect when I'm in Manual mode. I cannot manually select the antenna I wish to
connect because my Manual selection is overridden by the table selection
appropriate for the last transmitted frequency.
Why doesn't Manual mode give me full manual control? Why can't I select the
antenna I want to receive on without transmitting first? Am I doing something
wrong or is this an intentional limitation of the firmware design.
Thanks and 73,
