Hello,
Does anyone know how the dial plate comes off the tuning condenser shaft? The dial itself id so warped I can't turn it very much. I have ordered a new one from Radio Daze so I am not concerned with destroying it. I'd like to take it totally apart so I can clean up the rust.

I just found a set screw. Was able to turn dial just enough to see it and loosen it. I have it off now.

I thought you meant the actual dial....there are rivets.

Nope it was the metal part. I got that off. In fact I took the whole thing apart. Pretty easy.

Yes, in those it is.
In 20/90 it is a metal spring that holds the rotor in the cradles of the outer walls.
