I'll give it one more go. I'll squeeze them slightly together and hope they wind up in the place where the tune capacitor was meshed. if the capacitor isn't meshed I'll spread them ever so slightly. I'll go back and forth a few times until I get it right.
I've gained some confidence with this experience but didn't loose any respect for the voltage this boat anchor holds.
I'll discharge it, use insulated plier's and screwdriver (amps unplugged or course.) Thanks to all who've taken the time to help. 73. Ps if I get the capacitor to mesh and output is still low I'm going to pack it up and send it to Mike. I hate the idea of having to ship it but I've two options, send it out or put it in the closet.
