[Heathkit] cleaning wafer switchs

[lee]

Personally,  I use synthetic maiden oil whenever possible, but it's hard to 
find.  I find it to work the best.  Now for areals,  I prefer Dr. Van der 
Graf Antenna Wax.  As they say, "a little goes a long way"  Too much left on 
too long produces "antenna lock, and we all know what that can do to your 
signal."
