"Tune" signal from Flex 6500

I have a Flex 6500 release 3.3.33 and added a Mercury IIIs amplifier which works great. Nice combo. Today I received the matching Mercury AT auto-tuner. One of the possibilities for convenience and safety is to provide a signal from the radio to the amplifier and tuner to block the amplifier during a tune condition. Keying the radio in tune outputs a low level signal to allow the auto-tuner to tune at a safe level. Always a good idea. The alternative is to make certain the amplifier is in a standby condition. This is an added manual step and can be sometimes overseen.

I don't see the possibility of an output from the 6500 during tune. Has anyone encountered this? Any thoughts on a workaround? My Thanks for any ideas, Jim KD1I

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
