Yes. What's wrong with phenolic in this application?
In the future I may just layout a smaller version of my IC breadboard
scheme and get it made on one of the PCB websites.

In my Dad's TV shop I saw so many phenolic failures I'm just resistant

Good point, if you were making a 1960's TV

My Dad's trucks featured a sign, "We Don't Service Muntz" ;-)
LOL
Well, they didn't call him "Madman" Muntz for nothing, you know.
...Jim Thompson
He serviced them for awhile. Then customers started complaining that
my Dad did poor service... as soon as the tubes aged, the reception
degenerated. So he dumped Muntz altogether.
Not that it mattered. Though he was located in Huntington, WV, he
became the largest RCA dealer on the east coast for many years. He
even played golf with David Sarnoff on a regular basis. (Met him on
the Greenbrier golf course at White Sulphur Springs, WV, and they hit
it right off. My father was consistently a par player (*)... even
into his 80's :-)
(*) With five holes-in-one to his credit... Spring Valley and
Guyandotte Country Clubs. Died in 2008 at age 90.
