[R-390] R390A not working at all

[Mark Huss]

I was digging out my old ASA Class Handout to publish the Front Panel 
Checkout procedure when i saw Flowertime's first post. Thanks Flowertime 
for saving me a LOT of typing!!!
Oh, and don't forget the Microswitch Fix if you are updating the manual. 
If you turn the receiver off, but the dial lights stay on, use a mallet 
or end of a scrap piece of wood to give the front panel a tap on the 
FUNCTION label of the Function switch. A whack or two will almost always 
knock loose the microswitch contact, resulting in years of troublefree 
service. Once I learned that trick, we never had to replace the 
microswitch again.
