I Use 3 x Prosistel PST61D at CW5W
Some years ago I had a problem and some people told me about the water issue
I bought new pot to replace it when I took it down and when opened it was in
great condition
For me the big issue is to have a good soldering in the connector's small pins
and a proper tape
Something bigger, K7NV PROP PITCH...!
