The instructions have you clipping one SMT resistor and then removing the pieces.
I've did a trial of this method on a junk PCB here. At least on the board I used, there apparently is some kind of adhesive under under the chip. The clipping process seems to remove the solder resist and perhaps any PCB traces under the chip. Is there anything under R8 that can be damaged? (Guess not, since nobody complaining. A blow up of the pix doesn't seem to show anything either) 73 de Brian/K3KO ______________________________________________________________ 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
