    Once the VSWR of the antenna circuit has been minimized, Stay Tuned should be switched OFF to remove this attenuation. If Stay Tuned is operated in the VSWR mode with no applied power, you will notice the display will slowly increment up or down. This is due to the analog mathematics of the device attempting to calculate the ratio of forward and reflected power, which are both zero.

    In the OFF – PASS THRU position, power is off, no sound will be heard, and the device is in a pass-thru mode. There is no need to physically remove Stay Tuned from the transmission circuit when it is off.
