well we certainly do not want termites, electronic or or other. Fortunately Its my 53rd rodeo, I use the shop vac method ;-)

And lets be honest, its not the valve body of an automatic. But she is clean, working and I got one .03 dip to go - which is fortunate because I have exactly one left. I rebuild them in chunks to minimize surprises, about every 3-4 components I fire it back up. Very sensitive FM tuner. But horrible build, my zeniths are a lot neater inside and they can be said to suck build wise...

surprisingly the very crummy looking carbon comp resistors are coming out in spec, pushing the 15% envelope, but in spec. I do not have the hum the OP complained about.
