Push button fix OK?
#3

Quote:I like to have all of the buttons out

Well, when all of the buttons are out, of course, there is no audio! Either the DIAL button is chosen or one of the stations, otherwise you have nothing. And speaking about those buttons, one doesn't glue them on the posts, correct? This the third set of buttons that I've done and I never glued them on before. But this time, when I push one in, the automatic pop-out of the other one throws that P-B out of the bezel hole and on to the floor! The felt with the holes is there and snug, as well. The flange on each button is NOT wider than the openings. I attempted to squeeze the opening flanges on the inside of the bezel and it now stops the buttons, barely, but they have to be tapped in with your finger tip.
