Go to Setup, General, Options. Check "Disable Split on Mode Change" and/or
"Disable Split on Band Change". I think this will do what you want.

Do you have the Auto Enable box checked?
In Setup click on the Audio Tab and then VAC 1 Tab, Check the box Enable VAC

should turn on the VAC.

You are correct, multi-hop E into Europe is usually good on 6 meters every

The ATU in the FLEX-5000 has 16,000 memories and a frequency counter to

Apparently the ATU LC values, frequency & antenna memory feature only

Upon receipt of your reply, I tried to duplicate the problem.
