Re: HP-41 card reader Message #2 Posted by Vieira, Luiz C. (Brazil) on 8 Aug 2002, 10:32 p.m., in response to message #1 by Jeff Glass
Hi;
I have two different readers, and in both of them, the "L" assy is just connected with each other: pulling them appart (in both of mine) will separate them. As you have knowledge, verify if they have not been soldered with each other; if so, try unsoldering them.
In both of mine, contacts between both PCB's are golden plated, well-aligned, firmly "locked" with metal clipers. As everything HP used to build at that time, a piece of art.
Hope it helps.
