I have the earlier version of the external LDG AT-11 tuner (without the
meters) but it also automatically tunes and usually takes the SWR down close
to 1.0. I'm really disappointed the the built-in Jupiter tuner doesn't do
more. Maybe the software will be refined to add more automatic features to
it. Right now, the external tuner does a much better job.
