Joe, Just been playing with this some more and there does seem something odd about 28MHz.
If I do as you instruct the swr does indeed now indicate 1:1 on bypass to a dummy load. However if I turn on the ATU and 'tune' it to match to an antenna and then go back and check bypass into the dummy load I get a high reading again. It's as if invoking the ATU to match the antenna is wiping the 50 ohm setting previously set up - all other bands seem fine. ANT1 and 2 behave the same...TUNE power by the way is 10 watts.
