[ICOM] 781

[Adam Farson]

Hi Bill,

Actually, the radio looks more elegant without those handles - you do not
need them unless you plan to rack-mount the radio (in a rack with a shelf
and brackets rated at 30 kg equipment load).

Cheers for now, 73,
Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ

Hi Larry,

Well,,,,,, Larry be right!!!!!!  One of the screws from when I removed the
hideous looking rack handles was binding it up.

Looks like I need to dig thru my Icom screw stash for shorter ones..'

Thanks

handles used instead of the shorter ones.  I would assume that you have no
rack handles and that the ones that are used to install them were used again
instead of the shorter ones.  I believe it is the one on the right but I
can't remember if it is the upper or lower one.
