A couple days after solving the bandswitch issue on my FT-102, a zener diode went on the rectifier B board. I pulled the board which required desoldering about a dozen wires from pins on the pcb. Does anyone know where I can get, and what they're called, those copper sleeves that fit tightly over the pins? I'd like to solder the wires to the sleeves so I will have connectors I can remove without using a soldering iron.

Thanks,
Ed

Not sure of the size of your pins/sleeves but perhaps the socket sleeves from, say, an old wafer 7 or 9 pin min. tube socket might work. I say wafer because it's easier to pull apart.
