Hi,
As a prelude to various experimentations, I had to remove the RX
filter on some C123. As this can be useful to others, I've done a
little summary of how I do it. It's not for the faint of heart tough
:)

Nice writeup!
Going at the shielding with a Dremel is a bit rough for my taste. I
might have tried to use something like Chip Quik to desolder it.

I don't have experience with the product, but it looks like a good
sensible method and the videos I've seen look fine.

I have removed some of those shieldings with a small caliper. The trick
is to use the round holes and to seize the metal there. Then rotate the
caliper and pull off stripes of metal like with a can opener. You just
have to be careful on the soldered edges, since you can accidentially
pull some copper off the top layer. With a little bit of wiggling the
shielding will come off nicely.
Regards,
Steve

great!
Comments welcome of course.
My only comment would be: Please consider adding this to the OsmocomBB wiki
rather than [just] your personal page :) It's good to have one central spot
where we collect the information, I believe.
Regards,
Harald
