Cleaning a tuning capacitor

Geschreven door Graeme Steel op 02. Jul 2004 09:17:40:

I have an Indonesian made Erres KY552U 5 valve set from the 1950s. It has ony the SW bands, but I have noticed that the tuning is "dead" (no stations) between the 30-50 metre bands. The tuning is "live" in other areas of the band.

I have an aerosol Philips Contact Cleaner 390CCS and I was wondering if I could do any good or damage if I sprayed the tuning capacitor? I don't have access to other contact sprays here.

How else can I proceed? any help gratefully received.

Thanks, Graeme
