[Elecraft] SolderingStation Selection

[Don Wilhelm]

  Bob,

There are grounded tip soldering stations, and then there are isolated 
tip soldering stations.  Both can be ESD compliant.
One can work on live circuits (with caution) with an isolated tip iron - 
with a grounded tip iron, make certain power is off before applying tip.

BTW - the Hakko 936 is a grounded tip soldering station - the Salomon 
soldering stations that I have are isolated tip.
