User Instructions
Thank you for your purchase of the model mAT-705
Automatic Antenna Tuner, designed speci cally for
the ICOM IC-705 HF/VHF/UHF Transceiver. The
mAT-705 tuner is powered by two built-in lithium
batteries, can be charged by a USB power adapter.
Magnetic latching relays are used inside the tuner to
save energy.
The mAT-705 Automatic Antenna Tuner responds
to control commands from the IC-705 Transceiver,
providing microprocessor-based impedance matching
on the 160 through 6 meter Amateur bands. On the
HF and 50 MHz bands the impedance matching
range is from 5Ω to 1500Ω.
The tuner comes with control cable. Both ends of the
control cable are standard 3.5mm plugs. One side is
connected to the TUNER socket of the transmitter,
and the other plug is connected to the CON socket of
the tuner. The transceiver controls the tuner through
this cable for automatic tuning. An RF cable mAT-
RC1 that connects the IC-705 and the tuner is sold as
an accessory item. mAT-RC1 is a common coaxial
cable with male BNC plugs at both ends.
1.Two built-in 10440 lithium batteries, 3.7V,
1000mAh.
2.TYPE-C USB charger.
3.Charging current is 500mA, complete charging
in about 1 hour.
4.Highest charging voltage is 5.5V.
☆The “PWR/CHARGE” green
indicator flashes when the tuner
starts, means the tuner needs to be
charged.
☆The "PWR / CHARGE" red indicator light is on
while charging. The red indicator light will go out
after the battery is fully charged.
☆The mAT-705 tuner has no mechanical power
switch. Its startup and shutdown are controlled
by the IC-705 transmitter, which turns on and off
along with the transmitter.
☆Before use, make sure that the control cable
and RF cable are properly connected. Pay attention
to whether the control cable has been inserted in
enough places.
☆When the transmitter is operating in the 144 or
430MHz band, it is recommended that you remove
the tuner. Otherwise the tuner may affect the
impedance of your antenna system.
◆ Turn on the
power of the IC-705
transmitter, the
"PWR/CHARGE"
of the mAT-705
