Model 118 frozen Bandswitch Help
#29

Henry
I just looked at my 18/118 chassis. There is a steel ring at the front of the shaft where it meets the bushing. At the back of the shaft there's a washer is peened that holds the wafer in place. Don't think you can get the shaft out without taking the wafer with it.
I would clamp a pair of vise grips on the shaft and push it towards the right (CW) little by little rocking it. But I'm a brute. I would assume it's set to the broadcast band. You wouldn't want to push it to the left as you could break the stop or the switch.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
