Beeswax is the traditional "tried and true." It does not affect the Q or impedance (if I recall correctly, silicone rubber does have an effect, I suspect hot glue would, too). It holds fast, but is still easy to soften/remove if a component needs to be replaced. There have been previous discussions on this list regarding this, which a search of the archives should turn up. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
