NOTE: The antenna port should be terminated with a 50-ohm load while tuning.
1. Set the power supply voltage as indicated in
Band/Power Level
VHF 50 W/25 W
VHF 100 W
UHF R1 40 W

UHF R2 45 W
700–800 MHz 35 W
2. Select PA Bias 1 from the Tuner Main Menu. When the screen is displayed, the radio enters
a special bias tune mode, and radio current increases by approximately 100 mA.
3. Read baseline current from current meter on power supply.
4. Add baseline current to device bias current to calculate target current.
