Re: [drakelist] Drake synthesizer update.
Rob Frohne [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterence to the drakelist gang -- Thanks for the detailed report Gerry. Here at WWC we have been making our own surface mount boards using a Xerox Phaser 850 printer.We then use a syringe to apply solder paste, then place parts by hand and bake in a specially modified toaster oven. It gives great results, and much quicker than soldering conventional through hole parts. I'm considering making one of those type boards for this project later this summer. We will see what happens. You can see some instructions on the process at: http://www.wwc.edu/academics/departments/engineering/students/classes/ engr357/index.htm Again, thanks for the report. Rob -- Rob Frohne, Ph.D., P.E.

RE: [drakelist] Drake synthesizer update.
Gene McCalmont [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterence to the drakelist gang -- Hello Gerry; Thanks for the update on the Far Circuits kit. I must say that I am a bit discouraged by your report. I assume that there is always some deviation in magazine construction projects, but as you say, had you not been in the business, you'd be dead in the water. The poor quality control on the circuit board is enough to deal with without having to interpret what parts were substituted. How does an average Ham work through this without some documentation? Thanks again for your update and please keep us informed on your progress... I for one was/am looking forward to taking up the project.

MIKE BRYCE [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterence to the drakelist gang -- whoa!! i knwo Fred quite well from far circuits... His quality at times can be a bit ruff but not as bad as what you have in your hands. send them back quality like that is unacceptable at any level.. he will replace them without charge Mike Bryce, WB8VGE SunLight Energy Systems http://www.seslogic.com http://www.theheathkitshop.com -- On Behalf of MIKE BRYCE [EMAIL PROTECTED] Submissions:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: http://www.zerobeat.net Brought to you courtesy of TLCHost.net http://www.tlchost.net/ --
