Title: KENWOOD TS 480sat DOESN'T TUNE any HF ANTENNA:-)
Post by: IZ0JOJ on 2016-12-02, 20:57:41

Hello everybody,
I finally configured my kenwood TS 480sat to work with remote rig.
Excellent - I am so happy.

There is only one problem now.

The internal auto tuner of the kenwood TS 480 doesn't work. On the roof I have a HF antenna that should be resonant for 20 - 40 meters band. It works: I can hear distinct CW and USB QSOs. When I want to tune.. because I have higher SWR I press just once and ...it beeps saying in CW SWR !

I tried other 2 antennas - a long wire and another vertical HF antenna but.... NEVER WORKS!

I just reset to factory the KEWNOOD TS 480 ...but still doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I would suggest asking on the TS-480 Yahoo Group at:
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/TS-480/info

or contact Kenwood support. Your problem is not related to RemoteRig.
