[Elecraft] KPA500...standby vs. operate

Victor makes a good point. Although I no longer have pets, if I leave the
station (K3 + KPA500/KAT500) powered ON,
I place the KPA500 in Stby and the K3 into Test mode. That (hopefully)
ensures no errant transmissions while I  am
away from the shack.
I have to admit that I have sometimes returned and forgotten to put the K3
back into Normal mode. Then I wonder
why there are no responses to my calls (!!). Iguess at 73 I'm entitled to a
few of those mistakes.

If you have a pet larger than a goldfish, you should probably put it
into standby. Unless your pet is licensed to transmit.
