Why's everybody so afraid of putting PCB's in a dishwasher? At my old job
we used a lemon juice-based flux in the wave solder pot. It was supposed
to be no-clean but it just didn't work that way for the high-impedance
circuits we used. So we went down to the local TV & Appliance store and
got a Frigidare (IIRC- or else a Whirlpool) dishwasher. No soap, hot
wash, no rinse. Open door and let air dry. Worked pretty well except for
non-sealed switches, those sometimes got lime deposits.

Allison keeps mentioning putting them in the
dishwasher...
I'm somewhat hesitant to do so. But she's had good luck
with doing it...
That kind of scares me also. I've had good luck with
Mac's with a deep
sink, mild detergent, and a rather large food dryer.
