sticky store button, is this normal?

Hi,

Bought a BFD 1124 this weekend, set up and used REW, worked great, but i could hardly press the "store" key.

All the other buttons (fitlter, freq, bandwith, etc) all have a nice dentent "click" action when pressed. The store button, on the otherfand, felt like a keyboard key that had been mashed in and broken. It felt like I was pressing on metal. It had no movement.

After a great deal of pressure, I did get it to save the settings, but it seemed like a great amount.

Is this how they are all designed? I'm going to take it back to the store and exchange it if not.

Thanks!

Well, they're certainly not the most expensive devices in the world - that's for sure.

If you're handy you could open the lid and loosen the front panel assembly (that the buttons are mounted on) and move it a bit to relieve the scraping of the store button. Or you could just return it for a new one..

LOL. I'll take that as a no.

Maybe PE's 20% off sale was too good. I got it for $79 plus tax. Back it goes...

Thanks!

I've had two and neither had button problems. If you get a replacement, I don't think it would have that problem. $79 is a good price, BTW.

Yeah, i took it back today, and got a replacement. No more sticky buttons. Yay!
