[Hallicrafters] Dial cord restringing ADDENDUM

[rbethman]

This also was asked with the same references that I also have, i.e., the 
appropriate radio manual AND Sam's or Rider's documentation.

It is not the "path" of the dialcord, so much as it is geared to 
"technique".

I've gotten a few direct responses.

The theme has been the same.  "I've tried to do this on my XXXXX, and 
haven't had success"  "What are the hints/tips/secrets?".

I toss this out to the group.

I've achieved success on several different radios.  I attribute my 
success to trial, error, and patience.

I know that I've replaced the springs a few times with those from 
ballpoint pens.  I've also used the braided Dacron fishing line, in lieu 
of purchasing dial cord from the on-line emporiums.

I've also used waxed cord in one or two instances, when the cord wanted 
to slide in lieu of turning the grooved wheel on the tuning capacitor.

Anyone care to chime in with their ideas?
