I asked and was told not to clean the core, that whatever junk gets stuck
in there wou't hurt the core's operation. Maybe it's time for round 2 of
the discussion.
What if something in that dust is conductive?
What if something in that dust has wierd magnetic properties?
What if that dust interferes with the core's cooling?
What if I slowly dipped the core board into a pan of IPA or distilled
water, then slowly lifted it out, and repeated until the core board was
clean?
