[ARC5] BC-455-B Rcvr - removing solder from jack pins

[Michael Hanz]

Here's another vote for Steve's method - I've used it for many years.  
Wear a full face shield over safety glasses, put some painter's tape 
over anything you don't want solder on.  The blast of air should 
coincide with the removal of the soldering iron heat. Clean off solder 
spray with a pencil eraser or plastic tool - it's quite thin.
