Hopefully a simple electronics question.

I treated Mr Filco to a metal suit from vortex this Christmas. I'm having a little trouble fitting him in (the little bugger has put on weight!).

The problem seems to be an rf choke(?) on the usb cable that's too big for the space between the pcb and the case. Can I just remove the choke? Is it an easy thing to do?

Remove the shrink-tubing and take a look. If it's standard, you should be able to remove it easily.

Took a hammer to it in the end. I'll post pics tomorrow.
