second to run. There is also a quick tune mode. If the SWR is below 2.0 when you press the tune
button to start a tuning cycle, the tuner will first try a memory tune routine to see if it can achieve
a low SWR without a complete re-tune. This also takes about a half second to run. If it does not
find a good match, then it runs a full tuning routine.
A Word About Tuning Etiquette
Be sure to use a vacant frequency to tune. With today’s crowded ham bands, this is often difficult.
However, do your best to avoid interfering with other hams as you tune. Your Z-11Pro’s very
short tuning cycle, often only a fraction of a second, minimizes the impact of your tuning
transmissions. Tune at reduced power whenever possible; one or two watts is plenty.
Care and Maintenance
Your Z-11Pro tuner is essentially maintenance-free; just be sure to observe the power limits
discussed in this manual. The outer case may be cleaned as needed with a soft cloth slightly
dampened in household cleaning solution. As with any modern electronic device, your Z-11Pro
can be damaged by temperature extremes, water, impact or static discharge. LDG strongly
recommends that you use a good quality, properly installed lightning arrestor in the antenna lead.

Firmware Upgrades
From time to time LDG may release upgraded firmware for the Z-11Pro, refining operation and

be announced on our web site when available.
