Hi:
I have been looking at the poor quality solder joints on the oscillator.
If you have a steady hand and a small tipped soldering with silver
baring (about 2% silver) solder, I would re-solder the connections. Many
of them do not look properly "wetted" and cold. Some of the hea

With a microscope if you can get your hands on one. Look for cracked
SMT parts. The high heat from the oven could very well stress the
parts causing a failure. Flux the board up and hit al

OK
I get to add 10 cents here.
Yes indeed various foam stuff goes to heck after many years and can indeed
become this strange goo-ie stuff. Or it gets all flakey. Well the good news
is stuff seems to work and that can be frustrating. So I would suggest the
very deep dive and look at all of the sold

A good hot air heat gun would most likely do the trick. Maybe use some
solder wick first to lower the amount of tin/lead sold

I'm somewhat tempted to try putting the bottom in the vice, heating the

How about using a commercial type Hot Plate. I have one that

boards.

Perhaps you can describe how to do this. I can't see a way that would not
make a huge mess (big torch) or not ever get there (big soldering iron). I
would really like to be able to get inside of some of these without making
them all into trash.
