BoscoI tested the ATU-100 EXT. I noticed that the PWR and SWR meters aren't quite accurate. The PWR meter, in particular, is usually 30 watts too low.

Anton (PD5ANT)After finding and fixing several issues with the pre assembled SMD parts I’ve got the ATU working nice for switching between 20 and 40 mtr band with the (tr)uSDX. Fabulous addition to my portable kit. #atu100 #truSDX #hamradio #amateurradio
KK7IGRI need to tweak some cells* in the PIC16F1938 in my #atu100 so that I can re-wind the TX sense transformer to work with fewer watts but still have an accurate power meter. But I don't want to spend more than the cost of the tuner on a #PIC programmer... But all of the non-PICKit diy programmers don't list the 1938 as supported hardware, except the ones where the programmer itself is PIC-based, a catch-22.
* cells = variables stored in pre-determined EEPROM locations
