Yes, that is the purpose of the TUNE button.
"One measure of how close an antenna is to resonance is its SWR (standing wave
ratio). The KX3 displays SWR in TUNE mode (pg. 14). “ KX3 manual, page 6
"TUNE is used to put out a CW signal at the power level selected by the PWR
control. This is useful with external wattmeters and antenna tuners. If the TUN PWR
menu entry is set to a numeric value, rather than NOR, then this value—if
lower—overrides the power control setting.” KX3 manual, page 14

I am working with a resonant 20m vertical.
With the ATU off, when I press the Tune button I see an SWR reading, is that
the SWR the rig is seeing with the ATU in bypass?
I assume it is, but I thought I would ask the masses to be sure.
Thanks
