Note to future self
« on: June 24, 2015, 11:17:56 pm »
So my cabinet which has remained unchanged for 10 years started acting up.  DOS machine that turned off and on with a power toggle switch.  All I could vaguely remember was a counter intuitive setting... and I had batteries inexplicably taped to the case...

After a few hair pulling evenings....

So here's my note to 2020 self:



Contemplate doing similar on your rigs.

Yeah, I still haven't recovered my proper settings after a similar battery incident.... years ago.
