60MB needs some love
#1

I'm working on a 60MB that needs a lot of love.

I'm working to get the tuning cap off.  Normally not an problem but has anyone ever seen this before?  There is a wire going from the block cap pin 1 (which is grounded through the mounting screw, highlighted with the orange line) to the tuning cap mounting bolt and soldered to the head of the bolt (orange arrow).  You can see the other two mounting bolts above.  Hopefully I'll be able to get enough of the solder off to get the bold out but sheesh...thoughts?
