The tuner requires RF power to tune. A transmitter in USB or LSB outputs no power when there is no modulation. Some LDG tuners can tune while you re talking...

First, some LDG tuners have two antenna ports; be sure you have selected the correct one. Second, LDG tuners can match up to an SWR of 10:1; your antenna ma...

Yes, that s a problem. Be sure to observe the specified power limit of your tuner. Also, RF may be getting into the DC power supply. Try adding RF chokes to...

This sounds like RF interference getting in to the tuner. It could be coming in through the grounds, DC, or coax. Try the tuner with the amp off and see if ...
