I don't know Joe, having been there with both the SX-42 band switch whipped 
me.  With the SX 28 I could remove the side panel of the box shielding the 
band switch, remove the shaft and move the wafers a bit to replace caps and 
resistors.

I have a very nice SX 42 that must have a band switch problem and I won't 
tackle it because of the location.    The story is, be very careful with 
your rebuild of the RF and mixer stage Bob.  If that switch is good, then 
you will be ok, if there is a problem somewhere then good luck.

they're much easier to rebuild than an SX-28. Watch the audio transformer.
