I just couldn't believe that something couldn't be       soldered. I guess REALLY agressive flux is required, as you say.              When it comes to broadcast TV I try to solder every connection possible.       Every crimp is one more dB lost.              Thanks.              Crimps in hand...              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
