[ICOM] IC-761 p/s

[Alan Leith]

Working on the p/s of my IC-761 this weekend, I was dismayed to discover a
fair bit of corrosion inside.  All of the screws that hold the circuit
boards are corroded on the tops.   They worked OK, in that there was no
difficulty in removing them, but I was surprised.  Is this common?

When last I replaced the 2SC2307/NTE2308s about 10 years ago, I don't
remember this.

The radio is inside, on my desk, safe and dry -- although living next to the
ocean means the air is somewhat more moist than inland.  Would that make a
difference, or is it just heat?  The rest of the rig is as clean as the
proverbial whistle.

Also, I gather that a PS-35 would drop in and would like to know if anyone
has one of those that they'd part with.
