 Did you fix your leak or replace the can? Mike

Subject: [TowerTalk] Oil for Dummy Load

My Cantenna-type dummy load developed a pinhole leak in the can, and all 
the mineral oil drained out.  I have several gallons of clean (unused)  
peanut oil left over from Thanksgiving.  Is there any reason not to use 
this instead? From internet sources, the flash point appears to be 
higher than mineral oil.
