[ICOM] ICW32A BNC spanner nut tool

Hi all,

I am looking for a spanner nut tool to remove the nut on a BNC connector,
specifically on an IC-W32A. I tried the usual things such as long needle
nose pliers (actually broke the tip) and a couple of other tools around. The
nut will not budge.

Years ago, I had a tool set specifically for these types of nuts when I
worked avionics repair. However, they have taken a walk into no man's land.
These tools were basically thin wall deep sockets with two rectangular pins
180 degrees apart. My shop is very limited and manufacturing something like
this would take quite some time.

Anyone have suggestions on a source for such a tool?

Tnx,

Larry
