[TVARC] Coax Connector "Grease"

[John Ellis]

P,

Good question Pete, Can't you just unplug it
from the wall jack? If not, you can get some
graphite lubricant that they use on locks or
some"anti-seize." That has a lubricating quality
to it. In any case, you will want to use it sparingly
because either on can be a bit messy.

73,
