Hallicrafters used rivets to attach many tube sockets and terminal 
strips instead of screws, and Hallicrafters guru K9AXN described a good 
tip.    Apply a small amount of De-Oxit to the rivet on the underside of 
the chassis, then using a flat screwdriver and hammer, give it a few 
taps.    You won't see any movement but the impact will allow the 
De-Oxit to wick into the tiny gaps and do it's magic.    A good approach 
for any riveted or otherwise inaccessible connections.
