Hi there,

I have a DX-375 from the SHACK and the power button doesn't always work
(sometimes I have to press it 20 times to fire it up...).

Is there a resonable fix?

Thanks, Joern

The problem is that the power and sleep buttons are both attached to a
bracket as thin as a piece of paper. The part that connects the power
button to the bracket has probably broken. I contacted Radio Shack to
get a replacement part, but they say that they can't help me. Yes, it's
really irritating.

The problem is that it's fourteen years later, so your reply has no
relevance to the original poster. Chances are pretty good he's not even here any more.

If you've got something to say, don't use an old thread to say it.

Part of the beauty of Usenet is its timeless nature. Let's revel in the
fact that there is a place where ancient thread necrology is even possible.

I have noticed that you must have your feelers out pretty intensively, as
you respond to many resurrected threads admonishing the necromancers not to
practice their dark arts. May I ask, what's the harm to you?
