[Elecraft] KPA-1500: What is it telling me?

[Rick Tavan]

BYP + IN means you have selected to have the ATU in-line but the antenna's
SWR was so low that the ATU algorithm decided just to bypass the L and C
components. Functionally, it's the same as BYP, but you know that the ATU
is enabled. This is exactly what you should expect with a dummy load.
