Ha, ha!!! But the beer was NOT wasted. It was the one sure-fire benefit of the exercise.
Removing parts with a solder sucker, especially those with multiple "leads" (some as many as ten) without destroying either the board or part I find it's common for a very thin layer of solder to remain after "sucking" the hole clean. The remaining film of solder is easily broken by wiggling the part. 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Wayne Burdick Sent: Saturday, February 20, 2016 9:01 AM To: Reuben Popp; Mark Petrovic Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Unsoldering For further tips, some of which are not described in the literature, see: http://www.qsotoday.com/n6kr-desolder-primer.html Wayne N6KR >> ...[I] get the distinct feeling that >> unsoldering really is the last thing you want to be involved in.... ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
