Hi Everyone,

I've just about got everything removed from the top of my chassis (except the adjustment coils in the square cans - so I'll have to come back and re-read this discussion on alignment later). I've got new caps (restuffed in the old cardboard tubes) and resistors and am just waiting for my wire to arrive and I'll redo the entire underside of the chassis.

In the mean time, I was pushing the tuning buttons on the chassis and this fell out of the mechanism somewhere. Any ideas what it is? Where it came from? Where I can find a new one? Do I only need one, or do I need several?

Thanks!
Eric
