RWB, I’ve used MX-6 on multiple occasions and have yet to experience any issues or failures. It’s good STUFF

The MX-4 was good stuff, so I am sure the MX-6 will be good too. I use the MX-4 on CPU processors, and I still have a partial tube.

I have a small container of Dow Corning 340 white paste that I use on everything else like electronic ignitions and etc..
 
i was looking for white paste,mike uses it but no luck. seen this and decided give er a try. its nice thick consistant and spreads easy leaving a light film
 
The reason builders don't use CPU processor paste is because that they are too dam expensive.

Super Lube thermal paste is $14.28 for about 85 grams(3 oz.) on Amazon. MX-6 is $11.99 for eight grams.

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned

    Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
