>>Ahah!
Then your story is inconsistent. You originally said that the MFJ gave a 1:1
SWR on all bands. That is inconsistent with what you are saying now. If the
MFJ is providing a match, then the SWR sensing on the rig would show a match,
and that would be the end of it.
***************

It's not my story that's inconsistent...it's the puzzling results.  The MFJ does
indicate low SWR.  The Icom auto-tuner "on" tries tuning, and the Icom SWR detection
circuitry with auto tuner "off" reduces output when running on 40M only.

That's my original plea  ...What should I look for and how can I measure it ?  Or,
for the immediate moment, how can I make it work, and to heck with the reason ?
