In 1978 I bought an Eddystone EA12 from Tom, G3YTO, sadly SK in 1985. It used to keep my bedroom/shack warm - thermal stability, and the glow from the dial lights was comforting. My K2 has been on continuously since June 2005 except for power cuts and the ARRL Field Day when I joined three new friends operating 1E, with my transported K2 for a while powered from a solar panel for extra points. I have the LCD LEDs off most of the time. Short of a rubidium or caesium derived source, keeping the equipment on all the time is a good way to stability.
