USNRET Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Cables: went to make up a 15' trigger cable that switches my L/R Cornwalls from the 7 channel SS amp to the 2 channel tuber. My trusty Rat Shack soldering station's power and iron lead wire insulation was dry rotted away. Strange as it has not been that long since I last used it and it is stored in my temp controlled office closet. Looking at the Hakko FX888D as a replacement. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted December 21, 2017 Moderators Share Posted December 21, 2017 I'll have one with you, even if it's right after the one I just finished. But I will never catch up to dirtmudd's volume, I wouldn't be able to blink if I kept up with him. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USNRET Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 The time of reckoning approaches as I have to meet the ship at 0700 Saturday. Since it is a 4-5 hour drive requiring an early departure from this sand bar I requested reservations @ Carl's Bed and Breakfast in Beaumont for Friday night. Sigh. I must be in bad favor as not one of multiple PMs, emails or phone calls have been acknowledged. Dash it all; it is the Holiday Inn Resort for me albeit a step up to a 2 star dwelling. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
