[TowerTalk] TB-2US

[Jon Pearl - W4ABC]

Good evening, Towertalkians,


I've got a pretty cruddy TB-2US that I'm soaking.  I've removed it from 
the top of my TX-455.  It's never been serviced and will spin somewhat 
freely after a good dosing of PBlaster.  Upon turning the assembly over, 
I can visualize a ring (just like a ring in a piston cylinder) that sits 
inside of the housing and it appears to hold the bearing captive.  The 
ring has close to a 3/4" gap in it.  I'll get a better idea of when I'm 
looking at when some of the crud has dissolved.

Question:  Once this thing has has a good scrubbing, would it be fair to 
assume that the ring could be popped out of the assembly with a screw 
driver - freeing-up the bearing?



Thanks & 73,


Jon Pearl - W4ABC
