Default Re: Stuck Ferrite IF cores.

In a second life I worked in MSDF ,mainly on the RT353. In the repair section we'd often get radios in any state of repair ( from poor reception to being run over by a tank). The latter we could do little with ,but in the case of realignment of the IF section cores, we used a heat source( gun/dryer) to melt out the core glue, then took out the cores before realignment. I don't remember breaking any in my few years in repair.
