Eric, That stuff works really well...I've been using it for many years and it was developed here in Canada by DW Electrochemicals Ltd in Richmond Hill Ont.
It works well on radio's that have multiple boards interconnected by pins that become intermittent, such as the Yaesu FT 2400H. I'm sure that Electro-Sonic in Toronto carries it....the last time I bought it here is Waterloo from Primespec, it was about $35.00 Canadian and that would about $29.00 US. I can confirm the price if you would like... 73 John VE3AMZ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric Lemmon" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, January 10, 2009 1:58 PM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Stabilant >A week or so ago, I posted the statement that Motorola had adopted >Stabilant > 22A as a preferred electrical contact enhancer, and had given it the part > number 1180369E78.
