Sure Bill. When feedline is wet, I alter some band segments by  
retuning as needed, as I operate. Then when dry, I encounter the re- 
tuned segments again when I encounter a high-SWR after I QSY. So then  
I re-tune, of course. As far as I can observe, that seems to wipe out  
the "wet" setting that was recorded at some nearby frequency. Seems  
OK. I just have to accept that I don't know where the segments are,  
and so I keep an eye on the SWR when I QSY (normal habit anyway).

I'll await any more helpful info from the creators. I accept that it  
may be simple "just keep doing what you are doing". It isn't a  
problem, I'll await any further understanding of the rules that the  
ATU memories follow.

Thanks  /  Windy KM5Q
