I've found the best way to tune a TT amp in the TT keying loop is to just put the exciter on cw, and use a keyer to send a string of dits while adjusting the amp tune and load. much quicker and more accurate than using the Tune button to hang a carrier.

General note:

I hope no one is insulted by my mentioning that your band neighbors will love you if you tune ur amp into a dummy load, tune ur transmatch with a swr analyzer, & switch the amp to the antenna & do a quick tweak instead of doing all the tuneup "live."
