[Elecraft] KAT3 Automatic Antenna Tuner

[Brett Howard]

That depends heavily on the Q of your antenna.  Many high Q antennas
are NOT calibrated across the band with a single press of the button.
However you can use K3_EZ to have it automatically set all of the
memory locations and that is usually pretty good.  However also some
antennas (especially some of those with really high Q) can change with
humidity and/or how wet the trees its in are.
