Re: [Drakelist] Cleaning bar knobs

I have used both white paint and lacquer sticks. I prefer the paint myself. Apply the paint, give it a minute or so to partially dry, then wipe off the excess with a paper towel moistened with paint thinner or mineral spirits. 73, Gary___ Drakelist mai

[Drakelist] R-4B and T-4XB's for sale

Re: [Drakelist] 10 Mtrs on a L7
