Greg,
 I did not see any posts or hex nuts on the bottom but I will recheck . The can seems to protrude thru the bottom of the chassis and looks like it was swagged or pressed in place.
I tell you I can see a curb in it's future.
                                       Thanks,
                                               Henry

Update,
 I rechecked and see no posts or hex nuts on the bottom . It's as I remembered it. The can is somewhat obscured by a filter block but I also checked the 2nd if can and it is the same. I have removed and repaired IF cans in other brand radios before and it was always simple as Greg indicated. This time it is not.
                                                   Thanks
                                                       Henry
