Chip, There is no regular procedure for using an antenna analyzer with the KAT2, but if you saw a change in impedance with each of the manual settings and those changes were consistent with adding (subtracting) the amount of reactance equal to the particular inductor or capacitor selected, then you have verified that the tuner is selecting the inductors and capacitors correctly.
You will have to figure the reactance change from the manual inductor/capacitor values for the frequency that your antenna analyzer is using. 73, Don W3FPR On 8/21/2011 9:10 PM, Chip Stratton wrote: > I've tried ALT, that did not improve the match on 20m and 15m.
