Hey Mike. It is good to see that I am not crazy :-) Taking off the 3.5' of solder did help a lot but it was not as easy to solder as the other parts I installed. It may have something to do with the process if installing the SMDs that change things a bit but it was defiantly a bit more challenging to do. I have never ran in to that before. Thanks for the info. I am almost done with the T1 now so I think if it is nice Sunday I may go try it out. Have a good weekend.
