I haven't got a board in front of me to check but convention would have the input from the transmitter going to the "IN" connection and the output to the antenna going to the "OUT".

Try to think logically.

??? IN is from the Transmitter

??? OUT is TO the antenna

its not clear realy is it as the out from the tunner could be the out from the rig or the in from the rig,depends how you look at it!,the issue is mine is fitted into an old aluminium ebike brushless motor controller case with an endcap with 2x so 239 connectors on it,,a cap blewup on it so had to pull it apart to fit a new cap,the 239's were marked but its possible to fit the endcap they are on upside down so in effect reversing my markings of ant and rig,i dont understand why the pcb is marked in and out,ant and radio would be more clear!.,i am still no nearer to finding a definitive answer then.73.

The markings on the ATU refer to the ATU itself.????? So 'OUT' is OUT of the ATU. ie TO the antenna.

With respect, I wonder if you could write your questions a little better formatted please. It's very hard to read your posts sometimes with no separation of sentences just using ','.

The markings on the pcb have regard to how the ATU operates - it wants to receive the signal from the transmitter on its IN terminals and feed the "matched" signal to the antenna through the OUT terminals.? The only information that has relevance to correct operation is that on the pcb. Just make sure you install the end caps with the so239s to match the legend on the pcb.

Trust us, it is clear and it is definitive. In this instance you have something in excess of 90 years experience in the form of Glenn and I advising you.
