Yeah - the 216B / 217B / 1149B

Will do. As I mentioned, if I pull the "S" bar out with my fingernail,
the machine goes into FIGS - so I'm guessing that the problem can't be
THAT BAD. Maybe a spring flew off.

I'll put it on the keyboard base tomorrow and play with it. I already
checked how the function bars work on the 28-KSR, so I have an idea
as to what to look for.

And as I learned with my Kleinschmidt TT-100B/FG back in the 60's, when
you make an adjustment, turn the motor by hand to see if all is well...

Thanx again for the help.
