[Elecraft] Scratched screen

[Ken Kopp]

Julian,

I think you're referring to the shield immediately behind the 
front panel ...

Mine (S/N 56) was badly scratched, as if the sub-contractor (?)
had carelessly tossed it into a bin with others as they came off the 
punch press or bending brake.  It was also wrapped in thin tissue 
paper, unlike the sturdy brown wrapping paper that protected the 
rest of the metal parts.  I wonder if this was the case with your 
screen/shield?

A 'phone call brought me a quick replacement. (:-))
