Don't put the Remote Control in the outside pocket of the Power Stand gig bag. It'll get hit during transportation.
The gig bag for the upper half of the {{L1 CR}} speaker is designed to leave room for the Remote alongside the bayonet; this is a good protected area.
== Stiff Controls ==
If the knobs get stiff, you can pull them out a bit. Chances are they've just gotten jammed down during packing.

Mr. Jonz is right (as always). The LED on the remote is after the insert loop. Depending on how much energy the signal gains (or looses) in the loop, the LEDs on the power stand and on the remote get out of sync.

Unfortunately, there isn't any easy way to set an effects processor to "unity gain". Observing the two LEDs might help with that.
