[QUOTE="Eric Eskam, post: 91250, member: 2124"] Re: Sticky Buttons Keep the old desk is just as appropriate with analog. We moved into a new building and got a new desk. There was talk of selling off the old one to recoup some cost. I and another recommended we keep the old desk "in case" - it's saved us a couple of times. Just as important in having a backup desk (analog OR digital) - have a plan worked out with a checklist of what you need to do to swap to your backup in an emergency. It doesn't have to be complicated; there is a point of diminishing returns. But if you at least make a simple punch list ahead of time if you do find yourself in an emergency situation and the adrenaline is flowing (and/or people around you are raising a stink for obvious reasons) you'll have a much better chance of success. The first time we needed to switch out to our backup, luckily it happened during a practice. After that fiasco (turns out we didn't remember everything as well as we thought we would!) some basic documentation was created. Years later when we again needed to switch to our backup things went MUCH more smoothly. [/QUOTE]
