Actually, that flies in the face of everything published about typical
silicone dielectric greases.
Tom,
I would tend to agree with you on this point, maybe it was the switch just
breaking down ( Only digital signals no high voltages) and the small metal
particles were causing further damage when loaded into the grease. Difficult
to tell. I was surprised however and originally put it down to what I have
just described. The Potable silicone grease was a local hardware company
supplied item, cannot find the can just at the moment though so cannot put a
name to it.
Worked very well for the original purpose which was to introduce into the
SO-239/PL-259 connection on my Steppir antenna, never had any water ingress
from there on.
