[Elecraft] Bad KPA100 PCB?

[Timothy A. Raymer]

Gerhard,

The other thing that will help is using the Biggest tip that will do a job 
for you.  If you tip has more mass, it will tend to have less temperature 
drop as you solder those components.  I did my mine with a 700F (370C) tip, 
but I used the biggest one for a given job.

Glad you found a resolution to your problem.
