[Elecraft] External manual tuner?

[Erik Linder]

Hi,

My K2 #4904 is now on air!
SSB and RS232 option is still in their bags, but the basic K2 is up and 
running! (Yes, I'm pretty proud of myself ;-)

I tried to use my external manual tuner with it.

But that was really difficult!
As soon as I rotated a tuning-knob the K2 adjusted it's power.
I found it impossible to tune the antenna.... :-(

Is this the way it should be, or am I missing something?

Is my tuner useless with K2 or is there a workaround to the 
autopower-level "problem"

My tuner is an old Kenwood AT-130.
