I recently took possession of several radios from the estate of a deceased
ham radio op.
While the highlight of the pile of loot was a Drake low pass filter, there
were a number of rice boxes (IC-726, TS-450S and DX-70TH).
The previous owner was a smoker and the radios all smell of such. Some
were longer in his possession than others which means the layer of
nicotine is thicker than the new items. These are the first
nicotine-soaked-rice-boxes (or anything for that matter) that I have ever
had in my possession.
The question is.....any idea on how to clean this stuff? The smell of
smoke is quite noticeable. A quick cleaning with a j-cloth and water
cleaned off a layer of dust and some of the easier to clean yellowing.
Again.......anybody have any thoughts on how to clean these
things? Several other items such as some MFJ tuners, etc....
