Hi, I am starting to drool about the KPA500. Let me get one thing straight: When the KPA500 is in Standby as indicated by the STBY LED lit it will stay in standby regardless of the key line output of the K3, right (either one, the one on the AUX output or the separate RCA jack)? So I can put the KPA500 in standby, hold TUNE on the K3 to generate my usual 15W of tuning power and tune my remotely located antenna tuner with the KPA500 staying in standby, right? I should not have to cut the key line or insert the key line interrupter to do this, right? Sorry if I am dense, but I have never owned an amplifier.
