>From the construction of the bandswitch wafers, I think one would need a
spray. Ten-Tec used stuff called Cramolin -- a red can ( R-5) was the
contact cleaner and a blue can was the lubricant which was applied after the
lubricant had time to dry. I no longer have the original cleaner but did
find a suitable replacement which may well have been deoxit. The Cramolin
blue label was labeled B-5. I know that when I ordered the replacement can
of cleaner, there were several choices -- one of them said it would not
attack plastics and that's what I got.

A note-
Several months back I saw on one of these reflectors a link to an
Audio-oriented supplier that had a web store and sold various maintenance
items. They had the best prices for the De-Oxit and Pro-Gold than most
others, and free shipping. They were great to deal with, the owner even
telephoned me to make sure I was pleased. I am trying to recall their name
but it escapes me at this moment, I have only made this one purchase from
them.
Thanks, Byron

That is NOT DeoxIT. Tuner cleaner has always been crap at best. DeoxIT
really works like tuner cleaners have promised and failed to deliver.
