[R-390] CY-979A/URR Problem -- Can't Install Receiver

R-390 Guys,

Some of you have probably endured my whining on the Collins list 
already. I *should* have asked my question here first.

I recently bought one of the CY-979A/URR cabinets and finally got to 
ATTEMPTING to install my R-390A/URR today.

The problem is that the rcvr will not go all the way into the cabinet.
It stops about a half inch short, apparently when the bottom rear edge 
of the receiver contacts the folded over structural member of the 
cabinet.  I believe that the lip of the receiver is supposed to go 
between the bottom of the cabinet and this folded over piece (the bottom 
of the cabinet opening at the rear).

Am I supposed to take the bottom cover off the receiver before trying to 
install it into the cabinet?  Help!  I've tried like crazy to force the 
bottom lip of the receiver into this "space," but it just won't go.

All input appreciated.  Very much!

73,

Ron, KD5S
