[Elecraft] KIO2: set 'Port' to 'Off' when not in use?

[W3FPR - Don Wilhelm]

Bart,

I you could turn the PORT to OFF if you wanted to assure the inadvertent 
communications with the computer could not take place.  There is no power 
savings that I am aware of.

I never turn mine off, and have not had any problems.

73,
