Default How do you fix the Redsun RP2100?

Like I wrote elsewhere, the keys are a bit stubborn on this set - they
apparently lack some kind of force distribution underneath to ensure
that the whole area works equally well. The actual switches are not
always exactly where you expect them, so hitting the right spot helps.
Don't give up if things don't work the first time, just try again and
push a bit more and longer - hold the set on the back if necessary. (If
I only push power on my TRA-2350P/RP2000 briefly, nothing will happen
either. Apply some more pressure, and the set comes to life.) Admittedly
it's an annoyance that shouldn't be there out of the beta phase, and it
bugs me the most on the tuning step keys which can take a number of
tries to finally react. In any case I have not needed to use the reset a
single time (like it should be). My set didn't even get cunf00sed when
the total battery voltage dropped to 0.9 V, though the clock was off
afterwards... Why the light tends to come back on when I remove AC power
is another matter, that's probably a simple bug.

If the microprocessor should really lock up, I would blame some kind of
production error (a bad solder joint might do). In this case the rx
would need to be returned.
