I would like to know if it is really necessary to use DeoxIt or
ProGold product during the K3 (or any Elecraft products) assembling
procedure or not?
Many manufacturers, as one example, use ProGold wipes on card
connectors on their production lines.
I use either ProGold or Deoxit on all connections, even simple stuff
such as cells in a flashlight or remote control.
I use ProGold for plated connectors including my Schurr Profi II's contacts.
I use Deoxit for unplated brass or copper, or oxidized surfaces.
Both come in a wide variety of applicators, with a variety of
concentrations and carriers.
My K3 kit will have ProGold on all connections.
