Ok, folks - this is off topic, but since y'all have been a font of knowledge about kit building, I thought I would try this question...
How hard is SMT soldering, really? I've been lusting after the TAPR Software Defined Radio kit,(http://www.tapr.org/tapr/html/Fdsp10.html) but it's majority SMT. I'm in my 30's, with fairly steady hands and decent vision... with the proper tools, should I be able to do this? Any experienced SMT builders out there got any pointers? Please respond to me directly - I'll summarize for the list later if there's interest. Now, for the other shoe - I just ordered a KX1 to go with my now almost 5 year old K2 (#668). This should be fun! 73 DE KF4BAL/V73 Richard Perry _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
