    Default TS 520 "Paddle" Switch Replacement

    I have a clean (with one exception) TS 520 I am restoring. One of the paddle switches (AGC) has fallen out but appears to be intact. Can anyone provide guidance on how to reinstall it. Do I compress the plaastic fingers and then insert into the seitch body? Based on eBay pictures, the paddle I have is intact. I'd rather not break it while trying to reinstall it. Thanks!

    Yes - they "click" back into place. Should you ever need spares, get in touch with Bob, KE5FTF. He's always got a spare rig or three worth of parts floating around.

    You,re right, they do click back into place. No special aiming of squeezing required. All it required was a little force. Thanks and best 73
