I've removed all the HT-20 shielding on mine along with the 5000
screws and have put them aside, not planning to put them back on.  I'm
gg to run mine in the cabinet but save the shielding if I ever sell
the HT-20 so the buyer can have it stock if he wants.  The same with
the meter shield and warped bezel.  I wish all the rack cabinet sets
had handles like the HT-20 and 51J-4.
