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
