Steve:

My SWR on both the TS590 meter and the LDG talking watt meter is 1.0 to 1.

I am working on what I know to be a resonant frequency on 40 meters, with my 
DXCC antenna.

Also, I got the same readings when connected to a dummy load, both with and 
without my manual tuner.

The re-set will be no problem, since I have all memories and rig settings 
saved.

Will work on this again tomorrow night.
