[Elecraft] K3/KPA500 with a MFJ-994B AUTO TUNER

[Phil & Debbie Salas]

I currently have a K3/KPA500/MFJ998 set-up.  I used a MFJ-994B with an 
ALS-600 for several years.  A couple of years ago I upgraded to a MFJ-998 as 
it has a built-in amp-disable feature when tuning.  I do like these 
autotuners and I have reviews of both in the "Product Review" section of my 
website at www.ad5x.com.  To me, the disadvantage of the MFJ tuners is that 
they do not work on 6-meters and the bypassed SWR of the tuners is high on 
6-meters.  Therfore you must completely physically bypass the MFJ tuners 
when operating on 6-meters (I do this with antenna switches).
