[R-390] Variable Caps

[Barry]

If these are the caps I'm thinking of, you should be able to *carefully*
push the "Y-looking" clip (the solder connection thingee) from around the
center shaft underneath the board.  The top part of the cap should then pull
out from the bottom part and the cap will come right apart.

Hello,

Is there a way to clean the variable caps in the Rf transformers located in
the RF Module. They look like they cannot be dis-assemblied, they look sort
of sealed with a rubber looking gasket/seal around the bottom of the top
ceramic part, under the adjustment screw. The shaft extends through the
board to the solder connections. Is there a good way to clean these caps?

Thank you in advance for any information.
