Hello The Net,

My FT-1000MP had a rattle and a grounding finger dropped out.
The grounding finger is probably copper, ~ 0.5" x 0.16" x 0.009 "
and soldered on one end.

Probably was a cold solder joint and came loose.

I suspect multiple of these fingers came loose and one is lodged 
somewhere inside
and prevents the rig from working.

I need to locate where they belong so I can count the missing ones.

Any thoughts on exactly where inside they belong ?

Thanks   Stan, W1LE    FN41sr    Cape Cod
