Default Well, it was inevitable...

I guess it was inevitable - Due to excessive knob twiddling, switch-
flipping and crouching in weird positions in the dark to better hear
distant signals, I now have a repetitive stress injury in my right
wrist - it's sore as hell! I guess I have to become a left-handed
clumsy oaf for awhile. I suppose that I will now need to use LSB
instead of USB, use lower passband instead of upper passband, and tune
from high to low instead of low to high. This is gonna be a tough
road to recovery...

Any and all advice welcome!

Ouch,
Bruce Jensen

AOR has a real tuning knob. Just a lot more repetitive injury immune
operating.

And exceptional performance.

I am not joking about WD-40.In cold weather my middle finger sometimes
will lock up from arthritis and when it does that, it hurts like hell.If
I spray a little dab of WD-40 on it, it works Wonders, for me anyway.
