Default Re: Cossor radio repair

Hi everyone.
Not sure if people understood the story. He did actually unsolder the tip of the valve terminal where it fits in to the socket. From there he discovered that the end of the heater wire had not been pulled through enough to reach the end of the valve for soldering. So, he looped some wire and tinned it and it manage to grab the wire inside the valve so it could be soldered. Hence the radio was no longer intermittent and it worked!
