Thanks chop-chop. I should have been more descriptive - I am using a slingshot swivel that attaches above the depower strap...I think what you are referring to is a swivel on the harness side of the chicken loop....that would mean spending $$$...

Flew with it today & it works OK unclipped...I'll probably stay that way for a while so I can suss it out.
Another option would be to get a Peter Lynn spinning swivelling set-of-steak-knives spreader bar - which in effect is the equivalent of a harness side c-loop swivel.
