[Mesorah] Artscroll Psalm 145 - Zecher vs. Zeicher: along the same lines (see inside)

[Michael R. Stein via Mesorah]

Another one that has always puzzled me is "naw'avaw" in the artscroll 
siddur with a kamatz under the nun in Ps. 93 (in the kabbalat shabbat 
davening) while there is a patach under the same nun in the sefer 
tehillim at the end of the siddur.  The keter appears to have a patach 
under the nun.

Artscroll is not the only siddur with a kamatz in that place in kabbalat 
shabbat, by the way.
