Subject: Re: Desoldering tips on ICs - The Big Oops

From: bruce@...

Just a bit of an update. It took time and determination, but I got
them all out, destroying only one of the upper pads in the process.
Word to the wise, it takes a long time to take these out. It would
have been far easier to do it right the first time... check and check
again.

Anyhow, upper pad was repaird, they are all back in. I caught this
just moments after finishing the IC soldering stage, so I will wire it
up tomorrow and hopefully have a lovely SSM 2040 clone tomorrow.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

Bruce
