Ron's Philco 37-640 Restoration
#10

Let me try this again. Somehow I managed to lose an entire post, so my last post didn't make a lot of sense out of context. So...

The next step is to unsolder all of the wires coming out of the RF unit from the twelve points where they connect on the main chassis.

Once that is done, let's remove the bolt in back of the RF unit which helps hold it in place:

Place this bolt with the rest of your growing pile of removed pieces.

Now, push the RF unit forward as far as you can, then tilt it forward:

Then, you should be able to easily pull it free.

Place the RF unit someplace safe and out of the way for now. We will return to it later.

The chassis now looks like this:

Now, the fun is really going to begin. Icon_rolleyes Icon_wtf Icon_confused
