I have a  question about the other end of an amp. I don't own a monitor,

coils of an  AL-811 by sweeping the input (while keeping the keying relay 
manually  closed)?

The best way is to set the amp up into a dummy load with an swr in between  
the rig and input of amp, and adjust the input coils for low SWR while  
transmitting.  There Al-811 amp comes factory set and if it needs any  
adjustment, 
should be very little.  Doing a static adjustment with a MFJ,  may get close, 
it 
won't be as exact as doing it while actually  transmitting.  Lou
