Brown/Yellow Gunk Around Chipsets?

I’ve experimented with putting the offensive receiver in a sealed container with a box or two of arm & hammer baking soda (the ones for your fridge) for a few weeks. Seems to wick away the final level of smell. YMMV. Combine that with a dryer sheet or two afterwards and you’ll be smelling like fresh laundry.

Then again I have a friend who swears he loves the vintage smell of old electronics. Actually requested I not clean his 1060 too much. To each his own. :D

Some folks love the smell of Napalm in the morning!

Sometimes putting a 'Bounce' or other dryer sheet inside and installing the top cover for a few days will get rid of any left over 'smell' after cleaning.
I heard from @boatdrinks77 that strapping a stinky stereo to the roof rack on your car during your daily commute works wonders.:)

Remember that Tom ?? Like a mental patient, I strapped that damned MARANTZ with the cover off to the roof of my car and drove from Co. Spgs to Denver and back, Didn't do much. haha
