Yes, you put them in the order I said because the SWR is telling you the 
SWR, as the radio sees it, or that's what you want, so if you want to use 
the tuner, you want it between the radio and the tuner so you can tell what 
the radio's seeing. If you put it after the tuner, it will only show you 
what the antenna's SWR is for the most part and you'll never know what the 
tuner's doing so radio, TW1, tuner, antenna.
The radio has no idea the tuner's in line so you'll have to take that out of 
line to use the internal tuner.
