10 OPTIONAL INSTALLATIONS/SETTINGS
E AT-180 internal switch description
The optional AT-180 has 3 operating conditions for
HF band operation. Select a suitable condition
according to your antenna system. |

@Set the tuner switches to the desired positions
according to the table below.

A The tuner operating condition is set by S2
(default) | described below.
THROUGH INHIBIT
The tuner tunes the antenna even when
the antenna has poor SWR (up to VSWR
3:1 after tuning). In this case, manual tun-
N ing is necessary each time you change the
frequency although the tuner automatically
starts tuning when the VSWR is higher
than 3:1. This setting is called "through
inhibit," however, the tuner is set to
"through" if the VSWR is higher than 3:1
after tuning.
TUNER SENSITIVE CONDITION
The tuner tunes each time you transmit
(except SSB mode). Therefore, the lowest
SWR is obtained at any given time.
For SSB mode, the same condition as the
"D" position.
NORMAL CONDITION
The tuner tunes when the SWR is higher
than 1.5:1. Therefore, the tuner activates
only when tuning is necessary.
