Hello,

My question is about the "TUNE" selection (half second hold of the XMIT button).

The manual's wording is....
"TUNE is used to put out a CW signal at the power level selected by the __ PWR control.".

Normally, "CW" means morse-code.
But, in this instance, am I correct in thinking it stands for "continuous wave" or, in other words, an unmodulated FM signal (constant carrier and
amplitude)?

The reason for my email is....
I am setting up a Magnetic-Loop-Antenna that has a "remote tuning" capability and that "remote tuning" set-up is not going very well for me.
If the KX3 is putting out a continuous wave, then there is a serious problem with the "remote tuning" box.

TIA for any reply.
