I should have said Load -- I guess it depends on what you call tuning.

What the ATU does is 'match' the transmitter to the load. It does not
'tune' the load. The term 'tuning' and 'loading' are frequently used
interchangeably in the case of an ATU.

This is not intended to start an infinite thread of debating! :-)
