Connect a 50 ohm dummy load to the antenna jack, or tune
VFO A (1)
to a quiet frequency on
the selected band. Use the
TUN
(19)
button to verify power output on the

(Set
to
Fwd Pwr
). If using the integrated ATU click the
ATU
(20)
button to initiate a tuning cycle.
CAUTION:
If you are not using the internal ATU
then connect a 50 ohm dummy
load, or ensure that the antenna presents a 50 ohm load with a low
SWR. Failing to do so may damage the FLEX-3000 output transistors.
