>From your description, it sounds like it loaded fine
when you turned the tuner off. If this is the case,
it should rule out the antenna and connections. Have
you tried loading the rig into a dummy load on the 20m
band? Is the SWR ok in the phone portion of 20m?
I've found that sometimes the memory settings for the
antenna tuner get messed up (especially if running
QRP), so one thing you could try is to reset the rig.
If you can rule out the antenna and the connections,
as well as the memory settings, it could be something
in your antenna tuner has gone bad. I've not
experienced this myself, so I can't help you beyond
there.
Good luck.
