[TenTec] Eagle problem?

[Bob McGraw - K4TAX]

The ground from the mike connector is a stranded wire about 1.5" in length 
terminating to a ground lug that is bolted to the side of the chassis.

I carefully observed this as I had to replace my MULTI encoder.  Thus it was 
necessary to remove the front panel and the associated mounted mike 
connector.

The digital and analog grounds are separate throughout the radio and are 
connected at one point on the power distribution board at the rear.
