I didn't know it was an insulator. I thought the layer between the
transistor and the sink was some kind of thermal conducting grease.
My _guess_ is that a fluid compound is inserted between the transistor
and heatsink so the transistor is not damaged by expansion.
My dumb head tells me that if you all need to do headstands and
cartwheels with water, vapor and so on with a PA on HF then you need
to use more transistors or tubes.
