I was listening / watching the Flex net on 1/10. On Dudley's (WA5QPZ) Flex 6300 screen, I notice that the tuner display shows all three statuses, Success, Bypass and Memory highlighted. What does that mean? Does it mean that the tuner found a match, but that the match without the tuner was better?
Secondly, I noticed that the SWR display is peaking between 2.0 and 2.5:1. Is it okay to operate with an SWR this high? I usually get nervous when my SWR indicates more than 1.5:1.
Since the radio is only showing 50 watts out, I am assuming that Dudley is driving an amp. Is it advisable to use the tuner to tune an SWR mismatch to the input of the amp/
