It is of course trivial to replace these spacer balls in an assembly
that has been removed from the transmitter.  It is in-place repair
that requires some patience and finesse.  :-)

Regardless, in-place repair is much much easier than capacitor assembly
removal, repair, and replacement in a command set transmitter.  It's also
much less of an insult to the integrity of the transmitter.
