What I do is leave the ATU function ON for all bands. If my 6 meter SWR is “really good”, the ATU tune operation (done once in a “training session”) discovers this and selects ATU bypassed as the preferred ATU setting. Both ATU LEDs are illuminated, indicating that the ATU function is enabled, but the current ATU a setting is bypassed.
Some of my HF antennas have good SWR at one end of the band but need more ATU assistance at other frequencies. I don’t turn the ATU on and off, my ATU relay settings are “bypassed” on some frequencies. You can choose the “really good” SWR threshold, by band, in a menu or the KPA1500 Utility. I think it defaults to 1.2 to 1. 73 de Dick, K6KR > On Sep 13, 2022, at 10:14, Jorge Diez - CX6VM <[email protected]> wrote: > > hello > > How can I use the KPA1500 to remember what bands need ATU IN and what bands > need ATU BYP? > > I have ATU IN on HF bands, but when I change to 6 mts I need that KPA1500 > change to ATU BYP > > Is this possible? > > thanks! > -- > 73, > Jorge > CX6VM/CW5W > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:[email protected] > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
