Hi Jerry,
That's perfectly normal stuuf you have:
Sn62= 62% Tin (Stannum)
Pb36=36% Lead (Plumbium)
Ag2=2% Silver (Argentum)
Plus some flux (I hope...:-) to let it flow. Just let it melt on the iron
and see if it smokes and you smell the resin.
As solder that contains silver seems harder to remove from a PC board it's a
bit less recommended, I read, but I used the same stuff to construct my K2
with SSB/NB/160/KAT2. It works fine and I did have to unsolder some parts,
with which I had no difficulties.
73,
Peter PA0PJE
