I don't leave test equipment in line for any reason. Once it's tuned up you are done with testing. I like to keep my test equipment handy and ready to go to the next job. The fewer connections the less trouble and less loss on your receive signal. But, that's just how I like to do it. If you want to leave it in circuit to watch the watts out, it's okay as long as the meter is not causing a problem.
