[R-390] R-390A coil pin socket

[Jim Temple]

I have to replace one of the coil pin sockets.  I have tried to bend the
contact, similar to what you would do with a tube socket pin to increase
tension.  This one is so far out of whack that this will not work.  I have a
"parts" RF deck and have tried several times to neatly remove one of the
coil pin sockets, but all attempts have resulted in a destroyed socket.  As
a last resort, I can simply plug the socket on the pin from below and be
done with it.

Has anyone on the list found a neat way to remove and replace one of the
coil pin sockets??

Thanks for any hints or help.

Sincerely,

Jim
