Please don't assume that it's ok to have the power to a command receiver switchable without substantial discussion and review. All prior AMSAT projects that I'm aware of have had command receivers always on, even if they weren't always in use. I'm pretty confident that includes both of a redundant pair. Happy to be corrected by others with better knowledge of history if I'm mis-remembering some relevant case.
