[R-390] Bugeye BFO removal

[Todd, KA1KAQ]

Not exactly sure what you're referring to Ben, but if it's the
microdial arrangement used for RATT/RTTY type installations, there are
two small holes around the bottom of the aluminum skirt inside the
black frame. Usually these are just open, threaded holes. Sometimes
they have the Bristo 'plugs' in place. If so, remove them. These holes
will give you access to the Bristo screws that hold the dial onto the
shaft. Can't recall the actual size (really small), but once you
loosen those inner screws, the whole mechanism should slide off the
shaft.

Don't take out the 3 Phillips screws in the black frame: they simply
hold the unit together.
