Re: front panel release catch

I haven't been able to find it again, but one time I did see a mod 
someone made 'cuze their's broke.  It involved a flat piece of metal 
that if you looked at it edgewise it looked like the square root symbol. 
  I think he just screwed it down.  If I manage to find it again I'll 
pass it along.
