hI folks,

I've got a couple of very long snakes, about 200-300' each.
THese aren't just 3 or 4 channels either.
tHe lk (spelling) multipin connectors on each end.

They've been used with a remote audio truck, and after
rolling across the tarmac and the muddy field and then being
stored for awhile without a good cleaning are desperately in
need of one, especially before my bench tech will do the
work necessary on the one he looked at for me.
ONe approach if I had the space and the equipment: Bag the
ends. COnnect pressure washer, pay out about 20 feet, hose
down, dry off, coil into bin.

My problem: My driveway is dirt; don't own a pressure
washer but that one's soluble. Neighbor kid whom I've
offered to hire for the task says he can borrow one from his
uncle.

My other thought: HIre neighbor kid for the day, go to
friendly neighborhood car wash, same procedure, but keep
feeding the damned machine quarters.
tHere are two of these things need taking care of. tHE
shorter one, the 100 footer is cleaner and the tech says
he'll check it over and bench it if needed to fix problem
connections, but the big boys he won't touch and I cna't
blame him. THEy're filthy.
BOy am I glad my neighbor kid's out of work and needful of
cash money right now g.

Garden hose, Formula 408, and a bag of rags. 409 it, scrub it,
rinse it, dry it, then go to the next three feet. The drying will
get some of the gunk off too!

Great audio is never heard by the average person, but bad
audio is heard by everyone.

I did a college gig once called "Senior Sours". I still don't know what
that means, but at one point, people started spraying beer everywhere. I
swear there was beer in the air. My snake smelled like beer for quite a
while, even after being cleaned.
