[Heathkit] Feedback on how to rid gear of smoke smell...

Sat, 8 Jun 2002 13:05:22 -0600

One of the easiest ways to get rid of obnoxious odors such as smoke, etc. is
to use Bounce, the clothes dryer additive. In a word, it works great. Just
place a couple of the pieces in your radio, etc. cover it and voila, in a
few days the smoke odor is gone.

Hope that helps,

Ron, N6PWW
