Of course, it is obviously impossible for the non-technical weenies to
actually switch the amplifier on into a standby mode when starting the
operating session - in which case the amp is ready to go by the time
you're
comfortable in the chair and decided which band to go on..............

But... why pay for all that electricity when 90 or more percent of the
time you don't need the amp? Wouldn't it be easier on the tube(s) as
well... longer lifespan if only turned on when needed? - Bill H.
