Brian, There is an input on the SDR-1000 X-2 auxiliary connector which is for muting the receiver while transmitting with another transmitter or other such optional operation. I am using this input to mute the receiver when I use my foot switch to key another transceiver. This is not designed to put the SDR-1000 into a full standby state but mutes the receiver only so that when un-grounding this input the receiver immediately returns to full panadapter display and receiver input. I designed a small plug-in board which mates with the X-2 auxiliary connector on the SDR-1000 which provides this input, an input for an external foot or hand PPT switch and an optically-isolated FET driver for switching a Linear Amplifier. 73's, Wally - M0ZAZ.
