I found Wayne Burdick's note from 2/21/14.   I have not set the tuner up
properly to take advantage of the 1.63 firmware.  I think this should solve
my problem once I carry out these steps.  Sorry for the bandwidth.

Hi All:

I had been having a sporadic re-tuning problem on one of my two 80m dipoles
using the previous firmware version.  I had understood that the new version
1.67 was supposed to take care of that.  It seems to have made everything
much worse.

On pretty much all bands, using a variety of antennas, the KAT500 seems to
start re-tuning after everything was perfectly well tuned.  It happens in
the middle of transmissions.

Any idea what is going on here?

Tnx es 73 de Brian W3BW
