[Elecraft] Cleaning a K3

[Vic Rosenthal 4X6GP]

I always cleaned computers (I worked for an agricultural software 
company and some of our customers' computers could have had crops 
planted in them) with a reverse-connected vacuum cleaner to blow the 
dust out. This must be done outdoors, of course!
You need to be careful not to spin fans with the air because it's 
possible to damage bearings with excessive RPM.
