Broadcast transmitters used a similar type spring loaded switch and I
found an open-end wrench that just fit snuggly enough to squeeze the
springs.
You could probably bend some 1/4 inch square stock to fit over the
switch. You don't need a lot of movement before the front panel will
keep the springs compressed.

I have the replacement and am ready to put it in. Any hints on how to remove the old switch with a minimum of effort and cussing? It has two springs on each end, and they need to be pressed in for it to be removed from the front panel. Tool, approach, etc.?
