It's certainly a fair question. As I conjectured above the photos of
the tool set, I would have thought that the Bristo wrench and
screwdriver in the kit would have been part of the basic technician's
tool issue (naturally including flat blade screwdrivers) - not
specialized tools for use only on the command sets. It may have simply
been a requirement from some nameless bureaucrat...wouldn't have been
the first time.... :-)
I can think of only a couple of screws on the sets that has a Phillips
head. One is a #4 sheet metal screw that retains the little covers and
block-off plates over unused parts on the control boxes, as well as the
nameplates on some of them. The other is a flat head screw that retains
switches in the control boxes. Can anyone recall any other applications?
