I will say that removing (I have done this to about 4/5 A1200) is not all that easy, the whole unit acts as a ground plane and will require some hot air, and a good 15 / 20 minutes of effort.
1. start warming up the back of the board at about 300c, keep moving the gun (do this for 5 minutes)
2. increase to 380c and continue for another 5 minutes
3. increase to 440c and contiune untill the solder liquifies.. (pending on your units calibration you may need to krank it to 480c)
Use a solder sucker to remove the solder from the shield anchor pins and and a small terminal screw driver to help gently leaver off the RF unit.
It will take some time and you MUST keep the hot-air gun moving make sure you set your air pressure on low

Thanks mate . I would like to mount the s-video socket in its place . I dont mind leaving it there but cant see where else it would fit ?
Now its important to keep the wires from the encoder chip short right , so does that mean the same for the wires from the s-video board to the connector ?
