[PVRCNC] RE: [PVRC] Desoldering printed circuit boards

[Ron Spencer]

Something I heard a while back that might work is to, are you ready, use a
belt sander on the back of the board. The resulting leads may be short but
it sure seems like a pretty easy way to remove the components!

Subject: [PVRC] Desoldering printed circuit boards

I have liberated as office surplus a bunch of telephone system pc boards
that along with a lot of useless components have about a half dozen DPDT 12V
mini relays and diodes on each that would be valuable additions to the junk
box for band decoders, isolation and miscellaneous switching of stuff around
the shack.

Trying to use a conventional iron, desoldering braid, etc. to desolder and
heat six pins simultaneously to remove the relays is not fun and the time
required is not cost effective. Any ideas?

Thanks es 73,

Jim, K4QPL
