Re[2]: [TowerTalk] HF2-V Doorknob Capacitor Failures

[N3SL@aol.com]

Bob,
   I'm certainly not arguing with you, and with that much experience I'm not 
putting any money on my memory.  But, I recall (way back in the brain) that 
the silicone based products contain either acetic acid, or something that 
becomes acetic acid during the curing process.  I've probably got this 
confused with something totally different.  Or, are there different types of 
silicone products you might be referring to?  I'm thinking of something along 
the lines of silicone "tub and tile" caulk.  Any insight would be 
appreciated, as I spend lots of bucks and time on ScotchKote and tape for 
joints, and if it's unnecessary, I won't bother.  That ScotchKote is nasty 
stuff in its own right....

73,
Steve
