When landing, I can set the Autobrakes to any setting, 1 through to Max, and they work fine (as in brake hard on Max, brake gently on 1). I have not had to change the settings in the aircraft.cfg from auto_brakes=5. Yes, I'm sure you are correct here. I just haven't found the magic trick yet   :(

Well Mark, I finally have a fix. I first calibrated the pedals and increased the null area. That seemed to help but not a cure. But then I traced the problem to the throttles, and the reverse thrust in particular. As you know, the aurobrake cycles to Disarm if the throttles are advanced after touchdown. I had reverse thrust set up as moving the throttles back past idle. I have been doing that forever with nary a problem with other aircraft. It appears that the 757 autobrake was sensing the throttle movement, even though it was into reverse thrust, and popping to disarm. So I just arranged a switch on the Saitek throttle to enable reverse thrust and all is well. Thanks for your help. :)
