If you're ever wondering about the tuning range of an ATU, check out the 
blog of K6JCA:

Jeff has done a really thorough analysis of the KAT500, among others, 
and plotted the entire range it is capable of matching on a Smith 
chart.  The plots show not only the maximum SWR it can match, but also 
the specific range of impedances.  The results would apply to any ATU 
using the same component values.  (The range of the  K3 ATU is similar 
to that of the KAT500.)
