[Elecraft] Problems with KXAT1

Hi! I`ve finished my KX-1 serial 1142 with its 30m module & automatic 
antenna tuner but I have some problems with the last one:

1. When I activate the "TUNE" function with my Vee dipole which has an 
SWR of 1.3 I hear the relays working, I see "ATU" on the screen until it 
finishes and see P0.1 (so I understand it is going on the really little 
power).    After pushing any button I see "r 9.9" so I understand the 
antenna has a really high SWR (impossible) or well, the ATU is not working.

What are your recommendations?

a) I checked all connections and after assembly see R3 value is a short 
circuit instead of 200 ohms but I think it is correct due to T1.

Thanks in advance for your help.

72 de Al, XE1NK
