SP-600 from hell:need knobs, handles
Steve wrote:
I'm sure you're right, but the JX-26 I restored last year has handles, and they appear to be original. The one I just got has holes in exactly the same place, and sure look like they were there originally. Is there a chance that some versions had them but most didn't? I have a JX-26 (R-274C) with handles. It is the only one of the 5 or 6 of these that I have with handles. I don't think they were add-ons, they appear to have always been there. -Scott |

Don't spray chlorine bleach on fresh urine.. the resulting gas is NASTY...
Chlorine + ammonia = ammonium chloride (possibly other nasty stuff). Bleach bottles usually have a warning about mixing bleach with other cleaning agents, in particular those containing ammonia. |

Maybe it was covered and I missed it - any ideas for "roach" droppings,
etc.? I've used "commercial" "relay" cleaners with "some" success, but there is still that DISGUSTING residue. Fortunately, I've not had a lot of radios like that, but even two or three is too many.

Well, as some comedian often says - "There's your sign!" I guess it is
fitting....... I think I've only dealt with one mouse/rat issue. Actually, if I had my choice, I'd take the mouse/rat. Like I said, I've used commercial relay cleaners with some success but it doesn't clean it all out. Thought maybe someone had other ideas! "Jeffrey D Angus" wrote in message ...

Bleach bottles usually have a warning about mixing bleach with other cleaning agents, in particular those containing ammonia. Close but not quite. Ammonium chloride is a fairly harmless and non-volatile salt. I suppose that could be an ultimate product, but not the major problem. Bleach + ammonia -- CHLORINE GAS which will indeed ruin your day. This could be the same reaction a previous poster mentioned about putting bleach on pee - if the pee has broken down to ammonia OR there are nitrogen compounds in the pee that react similarly, you could get chlorine gas from that too. Had a Zenith console that was moused, I used some kind of cheap dollar store lavender flavored cleaner spray on it just to get the dirt off before going after the smell. Now whenever I use that stuff, I have a nausea reminiscent of the mouse pee. Turns out much of what I was smelling was the cheap perfume in the cleaning product, blended with pee. That product is now forever associated with mouse pee in my olfactory memory. Another funny story: I do some volunteer work in a barely-occupied warehouse, and the bathrooms hadn't been used forever. One night I poured sudsy ammonia in the urinals to let them soak. Next day another volunteer decides to go in there with a bottle of bleach! :-o He was not a happy man when the green chlorine fumes started wafting up. Tox |

POSSIBLY ?!?!?!?!?!?! You forgot deadly chartreuse CHLORINE GAS ! I knew there was something else nasty in there (really!), but I just couldn't remember. Thanks for the correction. |
