[Elecraft] KX1 Question

[wayne burdick]

Hi Fred,

You don't need to do this. But if you want to do it for fun, you can 
connect a different load (say a 50-ohm resistor), tune up into that, 
then reconnect your original antenna and tune again. Each time you can 
check the L, C, and network settings in the ATU menu entry to make sure 
it comes back to about the same values.

The other way to make the ATU re-tune is to take a hike and throw up an 
ad-hoc antenna ;)
