Hi Guy's,
I have a request for detailed instructions on how to remove the sub-chassis on my 38-116.
Appears there is a broken hair like wire broken.
Its in the mid-section where the 6L7 tube is.
There are caps that need to be replaced as well.
I remember reading info on this repair on here before, but I cannot find it now.
I know the tuning dial assembly has to come off as well as the tuning capacitor and about 7 or 8 wires.
Don't know if I am brave enough to attempt this job, but if I had instructions it would help.
I am sure they have probably written a book on this subject.
Wish I could just hire someone to do it for me.
Anyone?
