Do you have the FP board gold pins installed? As a Navy midshipman I spent the summer of 1965 on the USS J C Owens (DD-776) in the Med. One of the radar units had a large chalked circle on the side of an equipment cabinet with the verbiage “If I don’t work hit me here”. Observed this repair technique used once. Worked well :-)
