Philco 20 restoration.
#32

Question on restuffing the big can on the 20.  Mike, can you elaborate on the technique/process for getting the can off without unsoldering or removing any of the wiring underneath?  Do you snip the wires coming into the holes before trying to lift off? I get heating the can and removing guts, etc - once off the unit. But I'm not picking up on how you got it off the chassis without unsoldering wires underneath. I need 20 can removal for dummies.
(not sure if it is proper phorum protocol to revive an old post to continue discussing, or start a new post, so my apologies if I did it wrong).

George - Berthoud, Colorado.  Learned tube receiver repair and troubleshooting in the Navy way back when, came back around to it as an old guy.  Re-learning all I can.  Doing my part to restore a few of these old gems.
