Heck, they don't even stand up to very intermittent usage.... they just
become very intermittent.   Likely any switch costing over a nickel would
work better.
However having modified many of these units, I'd suggest forgetting about
putting your better switches into the front panel. For contesting, it's just
not a convenient place to have them. Put them into a remote box or wire them
into the function keys on your logging program. The simplest is to take an
old 3 button mouse and wire those switches in, they seem to last forever and
are very ergonomic to handle.

Tnx for reading this...I want to replace the red push buttons on my 432
voice keyer with a higher quality type.  Standard issue from MFJ don't stand
up to continuous usage.  Anyone know of a company out there to order this
type of push button replacement?
