[R-390] 390 RF Deck Replacing After Removal

[thoyer]

Bill, 

Is the "green gear" still in place?

Mine didn't have one at all and it took a couple tries to get everything in
place and working properly. You'll read a lot of posts on the web that if
that green gear is not there that the radio is no good anymore. The way I
look at it, the factory had to put it together first without the green gear
so it is possible.......

Subject: [R-390] 390 RF Deck Replacing After Removal

Hello to the Group,
I'm new here and am searching for an R390 expert in removing and replacing
the rf deck.  
I need to squirt detox-it onto the rf switch on the bottom of the deck to
clean up bad noise when I switch bands.  I have the TM 11-5820-357-35 and
some notes I gleaned off your archives, but it still doesn't give me the
confidence that I'd be able to re-align the slip gears and crystal switch
and my fear is I'd end up with a literal boat anchor.  Unless this is easier
than I'm envisioning.  
But if not, is there anyone in the New Jersey/New York/Pennsylvania metro
area that has the skills to help me or possibly can do the delicate work
with me bringing it over. 
I am located in northern New Jersey and would be willing to travel if
someone  can help. 
Thanks for reading..
