Just to clarify what I was thinking *if* I go the auto tuner 
route... I would put it between the amp input relay and the tube. 
Easy in my case since the amp has a relay box mounted on the back 
with coax cables between it and the main amp chassis. Not so easy 
for most amps, probably. This way the auto tuner would never be 
trying to readjust for the antenna when operating barefoot. It would 
only see the amp input and only see RF when the amp was in use. 
However I'm leaning toward the WD7S tuned input board now.
