> > > > I just checked my settings. I have my iron set to 430C / 806 F and haven't touched it since soldering that JTAG connector last week. Yeah. So very hot. Don't leave it sit on the board at that temp. I figured a fast dab at high temp is better than letting it sit at lower temp though. Maybe I'm wrong. Like I said, I'm not a pro with the soldering, but it worked for me on the first try. Before I got my nice soldering iron I had problems getting connectors soldered onto another board because my iron wasn't getting hot enough. I don't have that problem anymore. :-)
My solder is Kester 44 Rosin Core Solder 60/40 .031.
