Well I figured out my problem (operator error). The ATU was in Calibrate mode and not Tune mode. So it is working now. However, when I try to tune 30m the power jumps straight to 6.3W (!) and doesn't fluctuate like the power reading does on other bands (40m jumps from around 4.6-5.1 watts with a 12v supply) Not to mention that the ATU gives me a somewhat poor SWR (1:2.8) on 30m even when it used to match relatively well (<1:2). I don't currently use 30m so it's not a big deal to me but something doesn't seem right...?
