[Elecraft] [KAT500] Tune in KAT500 Utility software broken?

[N5GE]

Aditional information:

Once you have tuned the KAT500 to a frequency, the tuner will use
it's memory to tune to that frequency any time you return to it or
near enough that a re- tune is not required.  If, when RF is applied
tuning is required, the tuner will activate automatically and
re-tune.

Both of my posts under this thread refer to the way my KAT500
behaves.
