[TenTec] RF Out problem on Orion 565

[Stuart Rohre]

For those faced with replacing filter capacitors that are leaded.

If you are concerned you are going to lift traces, simply cut off the 
leads of the old caps, leaving enough of a stub of wire on the pads that 
you can coil it around the lead of the new cap and neatly solder it. 
Done with care, it does not look bad at all, and provides a robust 
connection if you can solder correctly.

Also can be done on antiques that have tag strips that have such old low 
tin solder, that they don't unsolder easily; or the tags are too big and 
full of solder to allow complete clean out with a solder sucker without 
damaging the phenolic insulation.
