I tune without amp, just the FT817 on AM or FM, 5 watts, then shut
the Z11 off, then turn the amp on. I monitor the SWR on the FT817
meter. So far, pretty good.

hmmmmm...............
i would think that the swr between the rig and amp would always be
close to 1:1. the amp to the tuner to the ant would be what is the
concern. anywho - if you have the tuner close - even with 50w it
should do well unless you are really tuning around on 80m or 40 using
a hamstick - but you should know better...........
