On a 15 pin Jones connector it's quite difficult to

The Jones connector pins are cadmium plated steel.
I'm certainly no chemist, but I wonder if the ammonia, (present in most

I made the mistake many years ago of spraying lubricating tuner cleaner on
the relays of a KWM-2, the result was fireworks.
