Problem is that I can't get the sucker to budge!

Granted, out of all the tools I have, I don't have that little square thing, so I tried to turn it with a similarly sized screwdriver which *should*, I assume, turn the sucker. Nothing.

I did change out all the filter caps (the main one plus the ones on the board) as well as the .1's, and I have to say that the picture is MUCH sharper and brighter than it was. Also had a bad drifting issue with the tuning, and that's gone. This set's a keeper for sure. The colors are lush and vibrant, just like a color set should be

Now with the recap, it doesn't make any difference if the screwdriver is there or not. Of course I might have managed to budge that coil and not know it, who knows. I might just need those slugs, but I either need one of those square screwdrivers, or need to figure out how to move the one that's in there now. Where do you buy them?

Now if I can get this low sound thing fixed, I'll be good!
