[Hallicrafters] SX-62A questions

[W4AWM at aol.com]

Hi,

Many Hallicrafters sets use Bristol set screws in the knobs. The Bristol 
wrenches, which at first glance appear to be Allen wrenches, are definately 
different and non compatible.  Bristol wrench sets can be fount at better tool 
vendors, MacMaster,Graingers or contact Charlie Talbot, K3ICH at k3ich at arrl.net.   
It is also possible to find them at various web sites beginning with an "A."

As far as getting the SX-62 out of the cabinet, as long as you have checked 
the fromt panel, underneath and behind the cabinet and removed those screws, I 
see no reason why it will not release.  It would have to be pretty rusty for 
the chassis to fuse to the cabinet.
