[ARC5] BC-455-B Rcvr - removing solder from jack pins

[J Mcvey]

 Solderwick would be the best for that job.  If the solder is just on the outer surface it should clean up easily.
Wipe  the wick along the legnth of the plug when the solder starts to melt which will leave a smooth surface,

 Have you tried a solder sucker with the Teflon tip that fits over the pin? How about solder wick?

I picked up a BC-455-B receiver that had the J1 box on the front remover with a 1/4" audio jack, potentiometer, and a switch hard-wired in. Then I picked up a partial BC-455 that had J1 still on the front, but with wires soldered to all of the pins. Has anyone been successful at removing solder from these 3mm banana pins?
