[Shotimes] EATC buttons

[Jim and Debbie Leyden]

Paul,

When you took apart the front panel from your EATC, did you notice that
there was a pad for another switch (SW12) right smack between the temp
up/down keys?  Might be worthwhile to put a switch in one just to see what
it did!

As far as the buttons go, I thought that there was a write up on SHOtimes
about filling them with epoxy.  I have looked at mine and there doesn't seem
to be a lot of room for epoxy when the light pipe is installed.

BTW, if anyone has an uncracked PNL/FLR button they want to get rid of, let
me know.
