Thanks Bopb.  Forgot about the little metal cover.

I've still got to wonder, if kenwood can do such a wonderful job of access, 
where is icom and yaesu?

I'd buy an 817 with that much access so fast it would still be hot from 
getting here.
 Same might be true for one of the high dollar icoms.

Not implying that the kenwood is a bad rig, it is not.  Just different 
nitches.
