[R-390] Cam pins

[nryan at mchsi.com]

Hi, Ross,

I've disassembled R-390 and R-390A RF decks, but have stopped short of driving out the cam pins lest I do something irreversible to them.  Leaving the cams on the rods makes for awkward handling to be sure; however, with care you should be able to get everything as clean as you like.

Hello all, I am in the process of rebuilding my R-390 RF deck and have it mostly disassembled.(don't panic, I'm a clocksmith by trade)  I have come to a stumbling block, the brass rack cams are held onto the shaft by what look like tapered pins. I have been unable to extract these by ordinary means, is there a trick to them?? This is necessary as my radio was a mouse condo for a while before I acquired it.  I also have a spare RF deck on the bench to answer any synchronizing questions upon reassembly. Any info would be greatly appreciated! 73's Ross W1EKG
