You shouldn't need much of a jig just to do measurements as you can get at the foil side of the PCB after just removing the metal screen. Or is there some mechanical component that gets fouled that I've forgot about - I remember some Grundig that couldn't be run out of its case without propping it up appropriately, due to the use of an external rotor Papst motor, but that shouldn't be the case here (pun unintended...).

Thanks for the information on the jacks. It corroborates my earlier findings that the later serial numbers have plastic jacks.
