Just a 'hint' about lubrication.....
WS2 (Tungsten Disulphide) has the lowest coefficient of friction of any material known. Unfortunately, it's almost as messy as Moly or Graphite. Same basic family.
However, HNn (Herx Boron Nitrate) is #2. It is known as 'white Mica'. You can dissolve this in isopropyl alcohol. The al evaporates and the results are fantastic. It is also available in a small tube in paste form. It is very popular with folks who do the 'pinewood derby' cars.
I use it to coat the bullets used in my target rifles.... Fantastic stuff!!!

Wow, I have come down with a bad case of electron envy.
ine are a meager (4.80294?0.00008)x1E-10 electrostatic units.
ut then, I am on a fixed income and they are all I can afford.

Hi Michael!  Your message reminds me that I have not checked my 3010 in
ears. The tape is so rare that I would hate. To try and find one.  I will
et my radio out of storage soon as possible to check it out. Good luck with
ours. Be very careful. 
Quality Electrons - I employ only topgrade, high-quality electrons in every
ne of my radios. 
ll electrons used by me must meet minimum electromagnetic and physical
uidelines as follows:
harge = (4.80294?0.00008)x10E-10 absolute electrostatic units (AEU), 
ia = (1?1.99978)x10E-10 cm, rest mass =
0.9109534?.33528)x10E-30 kg, with a magnetic moment of no greater than, and
o lesser than,
9.284832?23.5554673)x10E-24    
Sent using steam power.

 Does anyone have any experience working on the frequency readout tape 
 drive on the ITT Mackay 3010C receiver?  I have one that is a bit 
 sticky and the spools are a bit sluggish.  The manual doesn't mention 
 anything about working on the display tape.  I want to clean and 
 lubricate the drive/spools and would rather not re-invent the wheel 
 in the process.

 TIA,

 Michael, W1RC
