I'm assembling an Elecraft K1, and get the distinct feeling that unsoldering really is the last thing you want to be involved in. I have solder wick that has embedded flux, and I have a solder sucker that seems huge compared to the size of the features I'm dealing with. The wick works ok at getting some of the solder out, but not all of it. And a little bit of residual solder is still a major physical blocker to correcting a misplaced component or bad joint.
I feel like I'm a pretty good solder-er, but I have not had good luck with unsoldering. Is it just me or does everyone have this problem? Thanks.
