I have two furry family members who often visit me when I'm
operating...and often come into the shack when I'm not there.
Naturally, being cats, they climb all over the place including my
operating position.
Heres a tip: if you leave your radio on when you aren't present, engage
"Tx TEST" to prevent accidental carrier transmission if they want to try
out their fists on your keys.
Sure, I could shut the station off, but I tend to cling to my old ways
when I used hollow state gear (last rig before the K3 was a National
NCX-3) and it required long warm-ups.
