[Boatanchors] Solder

[Rob Atkinson]

Thanks for that URL.  I did not watch the videos because my internet
connection stinks for videos but the text and photos were very
informative.

My way of soldering SMT is to avoid SMT gear so I don't have to do it.
I was hoping there would be something in there about soldering plate
caps on tubes but I missed it if there was.  I have used the
silver/copper/tin (no rosin or lead) solder for that and have not had
any plate caps come undone but I imagine there is a hard solder for
that application.  My big old American Beauty seems to be able to melt
anything.
