[Elecraft] OT: was soldering questions... thank you!

[James Sarte]

Thanks to all who gave me suggestions on soldering.

Was able to perform the Extreme Signal RX mod without a hitch tonight.
Tested the radio, and all is well.  Only nervous part was soldering the
hookup wire to R56.  I was afraid I'd loosen it.  I kept my iron at 364*C
though and made sure contact was quick with R56; just long enough to tack
the wire in place.

Now just waiting for the noisy VFO kit to arrive so I can solder those
resistor/diode pairs into the RF board.  BTW, none of the vias on my board
had solder in them which made life pretty easy.
