Thanks, Don.  In CAL FIL mode, holding CW RV does not toggle a bar over the
"c".  All my calibrations and tests have gone swimmingly til now.  Any
suggestions on where to start to troubleshoot this?  Is there another way
to verify if the toggle is being honored (could the over-bar LCD element be
bad?)?
