Spray the socket with deoxit or WD40 and leave it to soak. Try and keep it on the pins so you don’t make everything slippery. If you get it on the socket or tube, clean it off with isopropyl alcohol, but be careful not to rub any markings on the tube, they can come off pretty easily.
Those are great tubes and very rare. You would find no shortage of buyers if you chose to sell them! BTW, I have a one tube clock that can drive them, including a socket. I don’t have any of those tubes myself, but I made the socket for a friend. I’ll see if I can post a picture of the clock with a different tube plugged in. Contact me if you are interested in buying one. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
