Will I harm my W1 by leaving the W1 Power slide switch in the "on"
position and turning the meter on and off with my station supply?
I'm asking because the tiny slide switch seems rather fragile and using
it perhaps several times a day is sure to eventually break it.
I noticed that when I power the W1 off with the station supply, the
green LED slowly decays; when turning the W1 off with the slide switch,
the same LED goes out immediately. That suggests that the
microprocessor is involved in shutdown.
I know that all Elecraft transceivers require an orderly shutdown via
their onboard processors. Does this apply to my W1 also? Am I looking
for trouble here??
Thanks and 73,
Stan WB2LQF
