It doesn’t. You rely on the SWR meter on your radio and adjust the MFJ for best performance.

I use my tuner in conjunction with my MFJ antenna analyzer also my yaesu 891 has swr built in, however if you are using an swr meter you can find a frequncy that is not in use and perform short key ups with your call sign until you retrieve the closest swr that you can get. these are the settings i have set that give …

I use my tuner in conjunction with my MFJ antenna analyzer also my yaesu 891 has swr built in, however if you are using an swr meter you can find a frequncy that is not in use and perform short key ups with your call sign until you retrieve the closest swr that you can get. these are the settings i have set that give my ft 891 a 1 to 1.5 swr on most bands. Remember however that this will vary depending on your antenna system. im using a vertical dipole with radials. at 20 feet.

The meter is made to be used with an internal SWR meter in your radio, or if you don't have one internally you need to use an outboard SWR meter or SWR/Wattmeter combo. This is pretty basic stuff If you are new to radio I would recommend getting some help from say a local radio club. There also many great Utube vid…

This is pretty basic stuff If you are new to radio I would recommend getting some help from say a local radio club. There also many great Utube videos on using an antenna tuner, many antenna tuners have built in SWR and Wattmeter's but this one does not. It is a small meter and best suited to be used with very low power radios , mostly QRP radios is it's best use. It is a coax only tuner so if you wish to use it with a wire antenna you will need to run an outboard UNUN like a 9 to 1 or a 4 to 1 remote balun . 73 J
