Hello Group

Looking for some help

I purchased a used PW1 which is supposed to be 6 months old and working 
perfectly. It is mated to a IC-7600. Serial No 03010xx

Whilst I was going through the setup procedure the book suggests that the 
antenna tuner in the PW1 will work with the power off along with the input 
switch and antenna selector. Power is provided from the 7600 acc cable 13.8v 
supply .

The input selector and antenna switches work ok with the power off and the 
input, antenna select and meter switch leds all illuminate with the 
selections made.
The tuner however will only work when the amp is turned on.

Logic suggests that the tuner should be operational with the radio on and 
the amp off.

Is this normal or is the book misleading??????

Many thanks
