The ability to control an external ATU is very important for those of use who will also be using a high power auto-tuner after an amplifier. Eric/Wayne have said that this is on the list for a future release. What would make sense (to me) would be:
1) External auto-tuner sends keying signal to K3 when high SWR or manual start-tuning button is pushed. 2) K3 reverts to a low power (10 watt) CW signal for tuning, and DOES NOT key the amplifier as long as the external tuner keying signal is applied. 3) Once tuner finishes tuning, external keying signal goes away, K3 reverts to normal power/mode, and K3 will again be able to key external amplifier. Just my humble opinion. Phil - AD5X _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
