Guess I've been lucky with the RTV. In most cases I've used a dab to stick
things together, let the RTV harden and move on to the next step. Years ago
I had a power transformer fail in an old DX-40. Had to put a steam hose to
the beast to soften up the uckumpucky and pull the windings out of the metal
can. Found the open/broken wire on the first wrap and potted the transformer
with RTV. Didn't have any problems while I owned it. But if someone out
there with a DX-40, its transformer potted with white RTV........
Oh well, something to keep in mind.
Craig,
