Ken, dec WILL stop, momentarily, then starts to creep.

Wish there was clear skies here tonight to test. I just have a sinking feeling it will need to go back.

Ron did say to check the cables for worn insulation - this apparantly does happen with the HEQ5/HE!6/NEQ6 a fair bit, causing intermittent issues.
