[Elecraft] KPA-1500 ATU not working well

[ANDY DURBIN]

"Clearly there has to be some hysteresis to stop hunting. 25% of a segment width might width be a good number to choose, but this would require the current frequency counter to have improved resolution."


Why wouldn't it be preferable to use the transceiver's exact TX frequency, if available, for learning and selection ? Yes, I understand that Elecraft likes to give the detected RF frequency the highest priority. However, the logic required to allow use of transceiver frequency if difference from RF defected frequency did not exceed a defined limit would not seem to be too complex.
