for releasing these clips from the bottom of the aluminum rf/if cans? Sometimes there located in tight spots near the bandswitch and can be difficult to release. Sometime I've been able to squeeze them from the top of the chassis but that generates another issue. When I grab it from the top it tends to push it out of the center of the hole and then I can't compress it enough to fit thru the hole.
Maybe someone like Ford has a better idea??
