Apparently, Weller is offering a $20 rebate on their famous model WTCPT, the one that works on the Curie temperature principle. This is my favorite iron, still, after almost 30 years, and I have had them all (Edsyn, Hakko, Metcal, Pace, to name a few). A very forgiving tool for the newbie, and a satisfying experience for the ham of some tenure.
See: http://www.hmcelectronics.com/cgi-bin/scripts/product/1980-0217/ for an example of a final price of $92 on this iron. My K1 and K2 were built with this model iron ... and my HW-101 was built with the earlier model WTCPL, in 1979! ALL 3 radios are on the air and working great. (Do soldering irons have mojo?) All disclaimers, I paid more than this for mine, your mileage may vary, objects in mirror are bigger, etc. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
