[Elecraft] KPA500...standby vs. operate

[wa2lbi at gmail.com]

I would check the block diagram and/or the schematic to be sure but I think the standby/operate switch only disables/enables the PTT/keying line.

I do not think there is any harm in leaving it in operate.  If you are 
really "pinching pennies" on the electric bill, you might find a small 
advantage to switching it to standby.
