Whereas it has become de rigeur for remoate ATUs at the feedpoint of the
antenna,
tuning automatically, I wonder if anyone has historically done this by the
Armstrong***** method?

I did this a number of years ago when confronted by a homeowner's
association.

My antenna became a flagpole, insulated from ground and fed with a manual
ATU.

Since I mostly operate CW on HF, I had settings for the CW portion of each
band.

The only "armstrong" involved was that I had to go to the antenna to change
bands.

That really wasn't too bad.
