Lee:
Besides using solder wick (available at Radio Shack, I think), you can
use a needle to clear out the hole. Solder doesn't seem to stick to
needles very well. Just heat the needle near the point while trying to
push it into the hole. Usually works like a charm.

I was putting together a kit this evening (non Elecraft) and
discovered I was using the wrong instruction sheet version to the
parts and board I was using. (Always check your parts before
beginning - which I did not) I had to putt about 10 resistors of the
board. They are plated through holes. I did not have a vacuum
desoldering station...so I have to think of somethingto get the solder
out of the holes. A small drill? Anyone has some comments?
