Hi, On 80 meters I did some tuning and when I try the SWR about 12 KHz lower the tuner produces an extra click and the SWR is terrible again. It seems the tuner remembers segments of about 20 KHz. Is it possible to keep the tuner in its tuned settings so it is not necessary to tune the

If the feedline antenna combination is such that a 1.5:1 segment is only 20 kHz wide (a common enough occurrence) then one should take the time to get tunings up and down. You can probably do it in a couple of minutes. The K3 will shift seamlessly with your operating after that. One of the

remained in the same position because no relay clicks were audible when turning the VFO across the band. 73 's Steef PA2A  - Original Message -  From: Guy Olinger K2AV  To: Steef PA2A  Sent: Sunday, August 01, 2010 11:35 PM  Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KAT3 tuning bandwidth  See
