Yeah that lead-free solder is a pain. Seems like it takes a higher tip temp and a longer time to get a good flow.(maybe there is a seperate flux ?) Desoldering is not one my favorite things to do, it's just another step in the operation. If the two types were compatible... but I guess it's like oil based paint and water based paint. At least we can still use the 60/40 for our personal use. Hey Arjay, what the heck does "merde" mean, anyway ? I barely get by with English. Art

Hey Stratele, I think Retroverbial was referring to the "$@!&#*" in the text. I guess that's French,"merde" ? I think we're all of the same opinion of good solid PCB construction. Worked on enough older Marshall and Ampeg amps to have a healthy respect for the right way to use them. Arjay, correct me if I'm wrong. Art

No correction necessary, Art -- you're right on all counts.

RoHS-compliant solder = "merde" ("shiessen" in Germany, "mierda" in Spain)

Yes, you are entirely welcome ! Sometimes I have trouble getting the correct meaning of things that are written or spoken in my native language(english). I appreciate your contribution, man. Art
