Multimeter/Soldering Iron Clarification

2003-08-30 by klstay

Since this is all new to me, I don't really know what I need. I have 
decided to try building some of the simpler modules. (Paul, you'll 
get the kit order next week.) I want a set of building and 
calibration tools that will get the job done reliably for years to 
come.

I will probably go with a Weller WTCPT. I understand it is reliable 
and more than adequate for my level of planned use. However, I still 
have no idea what tips to get for building the kits!?!

A good approach for troubleshooting and calibration will probably 
only come from experience. Still, I'd like to waste as little time as 
possible "thrashing about" at first. Would someone be kind enough to 
outline some rudimentary calibration procedures they use for various 
modules and the types of tools needed to get the job done.
