[1000mp] MK V Tuner Issue

[Paul Baldock]

I use the MK-V with a Collins 30S1 linear.

I use the linear 15m band on 17m. The input SWR on 17m is around 2:1 so I 
use the MK-V TUNER.

Recently I have noticed that the tuner setting occasional needs 
reprogramming when using SSB. This seems to be caused by speaking a 
millisecond or two before the linear antenna relay has really engaged. I'm 
not sure if it is a glitch causing the stored settings to change, or if the 
"smarts" in the MK-V causes it to re-tune because of the momentary high 
SWR. Anybody know the answer?

It is strange that this has only just started happening after 18mths of use 
of the MK-V.

On CW breaking you can set a delay (up to 30mS) before the rig transmits 
after the PTT is activated. It would be nice if something equivalent 
existed on SSB.
