There is a "Tune" function though and this activates the ATU and tunes it according to length of the antenna and frequency set. This does work.

Surely you can run the TX into a dummy load? That way you can measure its behaviour without actually transmitting.

In any case, a few minutes of test signals is hardly likely even to be noticed, let alone tracked down and prosecuted!
