Slightly off-topic, as this is a general repair question. But it's a TIC.
I'm repairing a 5275A timer (all-discreet count logic to 100MHz, neon bulb
display, a most amazing bcd to decimal decoder made from neons and LDRs,
1-2-2-4 decade counters ..) and the current problem is a 2n1038-2 germanium
T05 transistor in the power supply.
It's mounted in an aluminium bush which is then isolated from the chassis.
I don't think the bush is also a collet but I can't see how to remove the
transistor. It resists ungentle pushing .. should I push it with a hammer ?
Or is there a kinder way ?
(I'm hoping to eventually put this into a system with a 101A oscillator and
a 9815A calculator to measure the ADEV of a Boule electric pendulum clock).
