Hi  
This just started tonight.The ATU is acting squirreled
I think it is the KAT100  
no change in setup…K2/100 to KAT100 to G5RV
FLdigi and Mac OS  (not yet upgraded to Yosemite)
Signalink USB  

no changes in connections

so…I use the ATU on 80M   it goes to 1:1 after several relay clicks  as usual
Then I xmit….Hi Current…red 5:1 SWR and variable
I turn off xmit on fldigi…now rcvr is low output…I hit the TUNE button and it re tunes the atu back to 1:1 and normal rcvr volume

I’ll check on my antenna tomorrow when it is light  but 

Does this sound like the ATU is going bad?

serial number is 5312

Thanks
