The front controls board is held to the chassis with standoffs held by
push
fit ends into holes in the pcb. Then bush nut free pcb mounted pots and
push
on knobs. Has anyone experienced the board dropping away inside. If the
limpet knobs work loose and then a bit of heavy handidness or knocking,
the
pcb board will pop off.





Nope, never. I should imagine the standoffs are good at their job.

The knobs normally prevent this and clouting a knobless pot smashes the
pot.

Clouting knobless pots on this would guarantee the board dropping away
inside.
All that holds the board ,then, is 8 quartered pips into the 8 pcb holes
,
easy finger force to release .
Does make it a doddle to remove the pcb for repair, none of those
awkwardly
placed triangular catch pieces or screws etc





I tend to come to conclusions through evidence.

I have seen no evidence so far of what you are proposing actually happening.
