Yes, I forgot the KPA500 powers up in Operate. It is the only Amp I own
that does this.
I will mention it to Elecraft when I chat with them later today and suggest
the default should be the other way around.

I suspect this is a very common mistake for ops who sometimes use the amp
and sometimes operate barefoot. I thought the KPA500 was designed to
protect against that user error. Seems I was wrong.
Suggest you contact support for schematics. Unless their policy has
changed recently they will provide them to you.
