I recently acquired a Jupiter in nice condition. The previous owner listed the radio as not having an automatic tuner, but when I go into the menu I can see an option to turn it on and off. When the option is set to off and I press the tune button, the Jupiter transmits as expected until I press the button again. When I set the option to on and press the tune button it acts like it's trying to find a match (transmits for a second or two) and then stops on its own. I can't find anything about this in the manual but does this mean the radio actually has the automatic tuner? I use an external tuner, but it would be nice to know this in case I ever decide to sell the radio (fat chance).

Thanks,
Jeff
