Quote:I really HATE leaving old components in place, but one of the caps was really buried and I couldn't even SEE the ground lead, let alone get cutters or a soldering iron on it. So after measuring it for my documentation I clipped the other lead completely off and stuffed it down into the chassis as far as I could and it'll have to stay there.

Rich,
I have the same issue.
C34 (Sam's) or C307 (philco service manual) is stuck under the bandswitch so deep I didn't even find a way to clip it yet.
I spent about 2hrs this week trying to find a way out and just left it there.
It's the last leaky cap in the radio, I just need to find how to take it off the circuit...
I think I need to buy thinner wire cutters.
