Dave,
I, too, hate piles of dumb little boxes. So when the Z3801 appeared I went
on line, bought some sheet aluminum of appropriate thickness, cut a panel
sized piece, drilled a few holes with an appropriate twist drill to allow
the start of a hacksaw and then finished the clearance hole
Interesting topic! Of course I no longer wear a watch since such a habit

I am puzzled by this thread. In front of me on one side of the TV are
