I am restoring an old Kris 23+ tube-type CB radio. As with most Japanese-made CB gear from that era, the coil slugs are held in place with some sort of glossy white paint-like sealer. How do I dissolve that sealer without damaging the coil forms? I'm unable to budge the slugs with a diddle stick, and I don't want to risk fracturing a slug by trying to force them. 73, Dean K5DH Usually a drop of solvent will loosen them. If the coil forms are plastic it might be a problem, but you can test the solvent on the end of the form first. -- -------------------------------------- Diagnosed Type II Diabetes March 5 2001 Beating it with diet and exercise! 297/215/210 (to be revised lower) 58"/43"(!)/44" (already lower too!) -------------------------------------- Visit my HomePage at http://members.shaw.ca/finkirv/ Visit my very special website at http://members.shaw.ca/finkirv4/ Visit my CFSRS/CFIOG ONLINE OLDTIMERS website at http://members.shaw.ca/finkirv5/ -------------------- Irv Finkleman, Grampa/Ex-Navy/Old Fart/Ham Radio VE6BP Calgary, Alberta, Canada |
