Default What's the story on solder these days?
Hi Ian

I suspect they are talking about plumbers soldering methods that use
such fluxes etc. Rosin core or the more current electronic fluxes will
be fine, which is probably what you roll is.

There is also the move to lead free. These joints always look real bad!

Cheers Bob VK2YQA (who works in a production RF/SMD environment..)
