[Elecraft] KX2, is the ATU activated when you key the mic?

[usmcss]

Hey guys,

Just got my KX2, I thought when you keyed the mic and the ATU was set to
Auto it would Tune the Antenna? 

I was just operating it and the swr meter was off the chart on 10 meters. I
had been operating the radio a few times before I noticed the swr meter was
high. Hoping I didn’t mess anything up, from what I’ve read I haven’t? I
have an antenna analyzer and the swr for 10 meters was at 4:1 so I’m
thinking that wasn’t high enough to cause harm.

Anyway once I noticed the high swr I clicked the ATU button and the Tuner
kicked in and tuned up perfect. 

I could swear The radio tuned itself when I would jet the mic. I know that
the tune is memorized.

Any input would be awesome!

Thank you!!!
