Well, we are out of the deep freeze (for now, more crap coming on
Wednesday). No more 5cm of solid ice everywhere.
I spent all of last week soldering on 5U stuff. I discovered today I
mis-stuffed 4 resistors on a batch of MOTM-485s, that messed up my shipping
for tomorrow. Happy emails will be sent out this week to ~ 10 people. I am
putting Euro on the back-burner for a few more weeks to clear out more 5U
orders. I am somewhat slowed by the fact that Shane the Tech has switched
job schedules at his regular place and his assistance will be lost for
several months to come. I put about 1/2 of the pc board he had previously
solder up on panels. I will keep on "panelling up" what I can until I've run
out, then I will have to start soldering up the pc boards to complete the
assembled backlog. For the last year or so Shane has soldered all the pc
boards for me.
It appears that I will have time to panel up about 16 more 5U modules before
the Euro SMT boards arrive. I also need to 'fill in the holes' for the
remaining kits orders. At least I have plenty of wire :)
I am still hard at mork, most every day on the synth modules. It's just a
lot of stuff to do!
