Bill, The MFJ-998 is an automatic antenna tuner. If you set the FLEX-5000 internal tuner to BYP (Bypass), then clicking on TUN will cause the FLEX-5000 (or SDR-1000 for that matter) to transmit a carrier at the tune power level. With the MFJ-998 in automatic mode, it should tune automatically. Click TUN again to return to normal operation.
