Hi Lou,
The tuner can match a wider range (about 5:1) at reduced power, and
this can automatically be handled in the amp thanks to a switchable
input attenuator. The behavior of the tuner/attenuator in the presence
of high SWR can be specified by the user.
An SWR range of 3:1 max is a reasonable full-legal-limit criteria for
many operators (including our focus group) when using an internal ATU.
This is typical of the case where nominally matched antennas are used
on each band.
