probably rf, but nothing to do with wsjt. because you are using the radio
at tune button, i think, not wsjt tune

I was playing around with HF with my TS2K. I usually use the radio for
VHF+ but I thought I would hook it up to my OCF dipole and do some digital.
I have found that I need to bring the antenna in a little as SWR is at or
just over 2:1 in the FT8 parts of the bands.

I follow the ATU enable procedure per the manual (p. 72). It tunes my OCF
perfectly on all 7 bands it is cut for but the radio never comes back out
of TX (red LED) and stays on despite pressing AT/ANT1/2) again. The only
way I can get it to go off is to turn off the radio. Is there something
obvious I am missing or is there an issue I am not aware of?
