OK, tool apart the tuning mechanismus, boy that's a real....clockwork.
I did it because I want the cap out and I want to throw it in my dishwasher.
The dial is not just cracked, the attachment of the dis to the hub is broken so I am not even sure I can restore it....
The thing is dirty as sin!
That capacitor is indeed solder well.
Now I could use some instructions while disassembling and assembling it back.
Does anyone know of any drawing I could use?
I was making a drawing as I was going along with taking it apart but I am sure there will be some questions when I will start putting it back together.
PS. Oh and that 5U4 tube...this is the same as the Soviet 5C3S kenotron (the way the power rectifier tube is called in Russian). And I had them out the wazoo. Wish I brought them here. I could use one now.
