[Elecraft] Danger of uncommanded PWR off?

[Don Wilhelm]

Mark,

If just "pulling the plug" is what you intend, that is not a good idea.  
If your K3 has been idle for a long time, you can probably get away with 
it, but is not recommended.

Issuing the Power off command will allow a smooth shutdown of the K3 and 
will preserve its state.
Compare it to the difference between pulling the plug on a computer as 
opposed to properly shutting it down.  The pulling of the plug may lose 
some of the configuration and current operational state of the K3.

73,
