Dave I assume you are talking about the oval shaped hole in the end of the
bracket mounting "arm." This sure seems like a decent idea allowing you to
remove the bracket without taking the PCB off. It does leave me with some
questions ince you have done it already:

1. Does cutting the end of the bracket mounting arm into a slot seem to
weaken it any?
2. When you re-installed the bracket, did you ahve any trouble getting the
PCB screws and standoffs and such all re-inserted?
