Bob -
It is just a "press fit" over the pot shaft and will come off with
"persuasion". I use a screwdriver, placing the end against the back of
the tube and pry gently against the pot bushing. There is probably a
little corrosion, and once it moves slightly it should come right off.
If really stubborn, a drop or two of penetrating oil should loosen it
up. But it "does" slide off!

Folks,
I need to remove an R4C front panel to get to the main tuning
mechanism for repairs. Haven't had to do that before.
Question: The tab for the RF gain seems to be soldered to the
outer shaft on the potentiometer. The knob comes off but the RF
control tab does not. Do I really have to unsolder the tab to get it
off or am I missing something?
Wonder if some previous owner had it come lose and decided solder was
the way to keep it on!
Comments most welcome.
Thanks,
