[SOC] Soldering Irons / Guns

[Bill Cunningham K4KSR]

Back in the days when 2 church keys came with a case, Schaeffer was  
advertising "The one beer to have when your having more than one."   
That sez it all.

But back on the subject of smoldering irons, why has nobody mentioned  
use of small butane torch -- or big one for that matter.  No cord to  
drag up a tree/ladder/tower.  As a bonus, much easier to start a fire.
