No, that is incorrect.  If the KPA100 is installed, the t/r switch is 
active.  Note that the bias oscillator (what I fondly refer to as the 
'birdie generator') is fed from the 12CTL line in the ribbon cable.

If you really want to test this, replace the KPA100 with the low-power 
lid and see what happens.
