[Kenwood] Silk screen legends

[Phil Florig]

Hi all,

Glad you asked this question John, as I am having the same situation
with my TS-850.  The lettering has worn off of the T-set and filter
selection pushbuttons due to use between myself and others at the
old work location.  (Also the TS-940 has some wear but has not gotten the
use that the 850 got.)

We use/used Letraset at work and is one of the best, however, is not
very durable when used on the face of pushbuttons.  Silk screen is
the best other that engraving.

Would be most interested in possible suggestions to solve this
situation.   Looking forward to seeing replies on this.
