Wherever are you going to find temperatures in a receiver that would melt any plastic? Polystyrene miniature tube sockets were used in "UHF" radio receiving projects. Soldering to their contacts took some skill to avoid melting the plastic, but there was no problem during operation. I'll grant you that transmitting firebottles might bother a polystyrene socket. That was what I was thinking. Someone trying to use a sweep tube to build a small transmitter, and having heat problems with the socket. -- Michael A. Terrell Central Florida |
