[Elecraft] OT: Transformer oil in DL's

[George & Jan]

Ken
Broadcast transmitters delivered from RCA & GE up to at least 1968 had PCBs 
in the oil filled capacitors and some transformers. I know this because I 
had to spend a significant portion of the transmitter replacement budget 
just to mitigate our disposable liability. Prior to replacing, the equipment 
had to be inspected & logged to make sure they were not leaking - quarterly 
I think.

. . .that the "transformer oil" that was available to --most-- scrounging 
hams since the introduction of the Cantenna
was -unlikely- to contain PCB's.
