TIL my old habit of just wiping down a connector with a rag was causing intermittent faults. A guy at the hangar in Dayton showed me the proper contact cleaner spray and my callbacks dropped.

What kind of spray did he use? That's a great tip to pass along.

Yeah, I used to think a dry rag was good enough too. The guy in Dayton showed me the CRC brand stuff, which is what @tessap97 is asking about. It really does make a difference for those weird gremlins.

Actually the Dayton guy was using DeoxIT, not the regular CRC line. That stuff is made for electrical contacts specifically. Makes a huge difference with finicky connections.
