[Elecraft] K2 # 6444 soldering problem

[R. Kevin Stover]

Hello Alan,

When I purchased my soldering station I also bought a needle point tip 
for it. When I put my K2 together I also didn't get enough solder on pin 
1 U1. I changed the tip in my soldering iron to the needle tip and 
actually stuck it in the pin 1 socket to reheat the solder.

The needle point tip is smaller in diameter than the the actual pin on 
the chip so didn't have a problem with melting plastic.
