1. Page 16: Under Tune Operation, replace the last paragraph (just before Memories) that starts with “If the
SWR is below 1.2…” with the following:
If the SWR is 1.2 or less when a tune operation begins, the KAT500 bypasses the matching network
without searching for a tuning solution. The KAT500 remains in either AUTO or MAN mode but the
matching network is switched out of the RF path (bypassed). The bypass setting will be stored as the tuning
solution so the matching network will be bypassed whenever you return to that frequency. This SWR
threshold can be changed with the Utility Program (see Automatic Bypass on Selected Bands on page 18
and VSWR Thresholds page 21)
