Hey Wayne, Not sure you were joking with that de-soldering process. As a POS field tech during the early 70's, I had to troubleshoot and repair generation-1 mini-computers to the component level in grocery stores. Picture performing each of those desoldering steps while standing at a checkout lane at a busy Ralph's, or sitting cross-legged on the floor of a dirty office. And don't forget the mods to the wire-wrap boards and fixing the paper tape readers on the ASR-33 TTY consoles. Those were certainly [NOT] the days! Thanks for the chuckle and memories! 73 ES GOD BLESS U ES URS DE KEN N4OI -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Is-ham-radio-a-sport-tp7571600p7571623.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
