  I used my 15 W Antex soldering iron that I bought
in 1971 to build my K2.  I like it so much that I
use a voltage doubling and mains isolating transformer
to use it here.   I have a crude 30 W from Radioshack
for more heat and a 60 W equivalent butane powered
iron that works on aerial wires and connectors outside.
