Givem hell, Dean! On the coils, I've found that heating the coil form (heat gun is best but solder iron if done carefully ) will sometimes melt the wax on the coil form allowing the slug to turn. If not available, I have on occasion drilled a hole in the PC board bottom of the coil; sometimes getting access for the tool through the other end of the coil will make the difference. If you do crack the coil, I assume you know its pretty much worthless for reliability and proper tuning after that. Worse case, try to dig up some used coils from other gear and just drill out the old core and install a new one. Good luck Ed WB6SAT |
