- I am having exactlt the same problem with my 11/34a. The only thing is I
- hadn't tried eliminating the 7859 (RL-11 V? (Sorry, I'm not currently
- living with my machine)) to fix it. I have two of the
- machines (One with the extended console) and both of them have this problem.
- I also have the friend who is also having the same problem. It seems to me
- that this must be a fairly basic mistake we are making with the machines.
- Any hints?

- Thanx
