[R-1051] tube puller

[David]

Hi, A metal rod or strip that looks sort of like a flat blade screwdriver, but is bent at 90 degrees can be slipped under the tube to remove it being careful not to damage the tube socket.

Hello All 



I have a R-1051F/URR and I need to change one of the tubes, but nothing I
have tried worked. I have also tried to get a R-390 tube puller,

they seem to be truly rare. I tried to use heatshrink, and it just slides
off when you apply heat. I don't know what to do. Any ideas?

BTW if there is anyone with a manual for the my R-1051F please hollar



Best of 73's Lee.
