Solved the power switch issue, I actually took it apart to fix it. Have to be creative when the OEM parts don't exist. The plastic tab that actuates the on/off lever snapped. So I used a tack nail, heated it with my soldering iron and stuck it through the disk where the plastic pin once was. It took a few trys until it melted through, then I heated the tac and melted the head of the tack to embed it into the plastic, then was able to cover over it with melted plastic using the soldering iron to make it completley integral and solid. Its rock solid now, just sliced the remaining part of the tack off with the dremel and it works great. Not loose at all. Chroma II is back to daily use in the shop now! Still need to solve the antenna issue though. Thanks for checking Mark.
