Hello SP3SWJ,
I have tested the calibration with 5W and 10W.
Does the calibration work in principle?
Are all calibration steps working?
Unfortunately, I don't work on the project any longer and I have forgotten the details. :(
Did you plan to develop the source code further?

Thank for replay.

One things on begin I must "develop" reverse LCD - to fit my hardware ( loaded to my fork)

Some video fr my HAM friends https://youtu.be/AgmzYGtPWvo how tuner works

OK will try with 5 and 10 - but convinced test a lot different pairs

I try go according to recomendations :-)

Finally to have propper working ATU I have two options

  • flash again and reset tuner this method
  • Calibrate on 0 and 5W with two mimimum sets to have "almost" good power reading

Will made video to show how action perform.

Thanks again for feedback :-)

I normally use FC-40 Yaesu and FT-710 - but for my FT-817 would like use this ATU-100

I saw you have DEPUB serial print - to what pin send data ? - this can be used to external remote "status dispaly" :-)

Hello Jerry,
On the video i have seen that the "Auto" mode was always on.
Have you tried it also when “auto” mode was off?
I used a serial debug print for developing.
Currently it is commend out in defines.h file in line 27.
The port/pin that I used was A6. (defines.h line 63)
It is reachable on the bottom side of the PCB

Calibration with AUTO off doesn't solve problem
