[R-390] MB connector re use (right angle)

[Roger Ruszkowski]

Dennis,
 
Just many years of gunk in yours.
If the coax is long enough,
you can cut it off at the connector and then pick, pry and prod
the old coax out of the connector one bit at a time.
 
These things are rebuild able and I have done a few my self in the past.
 
One of the fellows made a point last week about wearing your safety glasses
as you heat up the solder iron.

Good Afternoon,

   Has anyone successfully pried apart and reused the braid clamp on the
right angle MB connector from the IF out jack to the IF deck?  I need to
repair the center conductor on the rt angle, but the clamp isn't
cooperating..even with the petals pried open the coax isn't budging..
   Otherwise I'm making the usual calls on Monday to Fair and to The RF
Connection...they seemed to have had some in the past.

     Dennis
