I have done both the N0SS Version of the K6XX CW tuning indicator as well as the KD1JV Digital Dial/Frequency Counter. Both are good starting projects for SMT as they don't have a large parts count. The N0SS instructions for the CW tuning indicator are great for a beginner at SMT. I used a hold-down device that used fishing weights to apply pressure to the SMT parts via a blunt toothpick. Worked great! Dont forget to use a very fine tip for your soldering station.
