You can do that on some of the lesser models. But, I can see no way on the 37-116. Wires come in from 3 dirrections and even thought they are not rubber coated, they can be a little brittle, so best not to twist them any more than needed. Really it only took a few minuts to take it out and not much more to put it back. You just have to make sure that everything is back where it started.

I wish you were closer to me.
If you could show me how to do this disassembly in a few minutes,I would certainly like to learn it from you.
I could even pay you for your time.
Mine is a 38-116,which I assume is basically the same chassis?

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
