Getting 13 pins desoldered successfully using a desoldering pump (a manual device that looks like a fat pencil) or desoldering braid/wick is going to be very frustrating, with potential to damage traces on the board. If you can access all of the pins around the perimeter of the switch to cut them free with a small, sharp pair of snips, then you'll just have to melt the solder on the center pin to remove the switch. With that done, removing the pin ends that remain in the outer holes will be MUCH easier, and you'll just have to clean up the holes with braid/wick. There is a tool designed for this task, called a vacuum desoldering tool. It has a base station that sits on the bench, connected with a hose and cable to a gun-shaped tool with a heated tip. A vacuum pump in the base pulls air through the hollow tip of the tool to remove solder once it's melted. You'll spend at least $100 for a minimally acceptable Chinese tool. As others have said, this probably isn't a first-timer's project. Where in the country are you located? Maybe someone on this forum has the tools and is near you.

I will try my hand at it after a little practice on some trash bin stuff. Besides, it=99s at least 30 years old and th e worst that can happen is that I end up with a new com radio. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
