> Treat the radio like your computer. Always turn the PS on first, then the
> radio, and reverse the order when powering-off.  Other-wise you might
> "glitch" the program that runs the radio, which is resident in RAM during
> "power-on" operation. When the rig is "power-off" condition, the "OS" is
> held in ROM, and must be "loaded" during the "boot-up" period at
"power-on".
> Turning off the PS may cause a problem in the "OS", just like your
> "Windows" program when you shut off the computer without shutting down
> Windows properly. Any user info in RAM may be lost.
> The power switch on the rig does not actually control the primary power,
it
> signals the CPU to engage main power, or shut it down.
