1) It doesn't matter which order you hold the K3 tune button or tap KAT500
tune. I prefer to start KAT500 TUNE first, because it reduces on-air
signal time, and this interrupts the amp key line immediately, before RF.
The KAT500 continues tuning when RF arrives.
2) I don't use Mode AUTO mode.
Hmmm ... I think you may have pointed out a technical difficulty in my
mind. I thought the KAT500 divided the bands up into fixed segments and
I trained mine at what I thought was the center of each segment ...

If your antenna tuner settings at nearby frequencies are similar, they don't
all need to be present. The ATU searches left and right of the tune freq for
the first non-empty memory. But if there is a stale entry from a prior
antenna, it looks just as good for a Memory recall tune.
The
As I read Fred's note, it seems like maybe he is assuming that it can keep
multiple settings, as he said he has more than one antenna for most bands.
Does the KAT500 keep a separate set of memories for each ANTx port, or is there
just ONE for each band, irregardless of what ANTx port the

And that is good to know - thanks guys!

I don't want to belabor this but I do want to understand, this is sort
of science so it therefore must be hard :-) All this assumes MAN mode
which is what I run in.
1. There are defined band segments where the KAT500 stores matching
solutions if trained, by antenna port.
2. If a band
