My KX2 arrived with the lower third of the left side downstroke of the M 
in the MENU label missing. I have been using the KX2 for antenna testing 
in my backyard and have not noticed any degradation of other labels. I 
suspect this is a case of a label that just wasn't screened completely 
rather than being damaged afterward.
