It is a momentary contact switch and the panel clearance hole is very close.
I had to slightly loosen the front panel and shift it a small amount to
prevent it from sticking.

Subject: [Flexradio] Flex 5000 Power Button
Hi all, just got my flex-5000 going again here and the power switch does not
appear to work. I noticed it a few months ago that the flex was "on" when
it should not have been. I have tried to turn off with the blue front
button, but it won't go off. So I have been pulling the DC plug. Plugging
the DC back in directly, the flex waits a few seconds and turns "on" without
touching the front panel on switch. Seems to be working fine other than
that. Any ideas to "reset" the switch, or is it just a bad switch - failed
in the on position. Note that the switch does light up with the blue color
when the DC power is applied.
Thanks and 73
