The meters in the Tentec Titan were always glued, but no idea of their newer
designs.
Hsu did not talk about glued meters in AL811s either

If you read later posts, Hsu then said it **wasn't glued** in the AL-811.

Quite frankly I can't remember if any units ever shipped with the meters
just glued. I know an initial prototype S/N
0001 I have here has the meters taped in.

I looked at a S/N that would correspond to the 100th unit built (around the
1990 time frame) and the meters have brackets.

So let's not get too carried away with this. Does ANYONE have on glued in,
or was this just another rumor that was started??
