25 TX hold when internal AT
completes tuning
After completion of tuning, there is still
approximately 10W of output, so this is
useful if you want to go on to tune the
linear amp.
26 In-line AT while receiving
The internal antenna tuner can also be
used during RX. Depending on
conditions, sensitivity can vary by
enough to see a change in the
S-meter. It can also reduce
low-frequency interference.
