Think it through, it is an ANTENNA tuner (matching circuit). You disable all of them along the path (BYPASS), EXCEPT at the antenna connection.
It is presumptive 50 ohm to 50 ohm resistive at each stage, no tuner required, except for the antenna.

If feasible without risk of blowing up anything, and assuming the KPA 1500 also has a built-in autotuner, at what stage should auto tuner control be established?
