Model 118 frozen Bandswitch Help
#29

Henry
I just looked at my 18/118 chassis. There is a steel ring at the front of the shaft where it meets the bushing. At the back of the shaft there's a washer is peened that holds the wafer in place. Don't think you can get the shaft out without taking the wafer with it.
I would clamp a pair of vise grips on the shaft and push it towards the right (CW) little by little rocking it. But I'm a brute. I would assume it's set to the broadcast band. You wouldn't want to push it to the left as you could break the stop or the switch.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
