Get a roll of 3M super strength moulding tape at your local auto parts or farm store. Comes in a red package. Two different widths. It's a grey double sided sticky tape and leaves no residue if you remove it. It's intended for sticking mouldings onto the sides of cars. I cut a little square of about 3/8 ths inch and put under at least the two front feet on the K line stuff to keep everything from moving. It's good for sticking an outlet strip to the desk, etc. Won't hurt the paint and can be removed by rolling it off with your finger. Do not use too much like a whole strip of it, because it'll take a large force to break a large strip loose from say sticking an outlet strip to a formica desk. A little dot here and there does it.

They don't do things other than what they should do, they just don't always do it reliably. Going to TX TEST, I'll often get a mode switch as if I tapped it instead. Others are sort of the same. I have a hard time keeping the radio stable on the shelf, it really isn't all that good for protection against gravity outages [like an SX-28 was :-)], and it does move. I think I need to figure out how to get it really stable first. Then we'll see. 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2012 Cal QSO Party 6-7 Oct 2012 - www.cqp.org On 8/26/2012 9:39 AM, David Pratt wrote: > Phil - Have you tried re-installing the Front Panel firmware?
