Oh yes, that! I didn't think of it as SMT because
it has four leads. Took me a while to figure out
how to orient it, though. I sneezed and almost
lost that critter.
And I have two spares -- so mine is likely to last
forever.

Elecraft does have a kit where you have to solder an SMT device -- the
wideband noise generator. I got to practice twice with that one: once
when I first build it, and then again after I have a little accident
with a transmitter :-) I was going to try to remove the damaged
component with a hot air rework station that I picked up recently, but
with the plastic battery holder etc. nearby, thought better of it and
just snipped off the fried component with my side cutters, with no
dramas.
