[Elecraft] Soldering SMD

[Doug Hensley]

I'm not intending to start a long thread here so please reply via private emailif you have the time.  Here's my question for the experts:
Although lead free solder is not recommended for radios, particularlywhere there are multi-strand wires subject to movement or large solderjoints, ... is there any blind side to using it to tack down small SMDcomponents on to G10 board that will not move ?
The issue I am reading about, and I do not know if its really an issue,is that solder with AG content is less caustic on SMD components andwill leave a more reliable joint.
Inquiring minds,
Doug W5JV
