[Hallicrafters] SX-101A Front Panel Toggle Switch Removal

[Peter May - VK6ZPM]

Hi Steve,
Try warming them with a soldering iron first.
A tube spanner, if you can get hold of one might be the go on the nuts.

SX-101A so I can remove it, but a couple are very stubborn & won't budge. I
don't want to score either the threads or the toothed nuts holding them by
using a pliers. It appears too tight space-wise to get at the hex nuts
holding them on the back of the panel.
