Hi Don!! (et.El.)
FYI and for your edification, I have a FCC first class engineer that
works for me. He is very smart, and quite capable of out-thinking most of
us. He also has use of only ONE hand. Brain injured in a plane accident.
He makes VERY GOOD use of the aforementioned devices doing chassis rebuild
for me. Be careful what you say.

In my less-than-tolerant opinion (to quote an old Harley-Davidson
ad), if one cannot take a solder joint apart, replace a part, and
return the joint to good-as-(or better-than)-new -- without damaging
anything -- then one shouldn't be inside electronic equipment with a
soldering iron. If one can, but just can't be bothered to do it
right, one's radios should be confiscated.
With just a little practice, doing it right doesn't even take longer
than making a quiggle of it!
But yes, to each his own.
Best regards,
Don
