Solder Woes

Solder Woes

2001-02-10 by bruce@sigalarm.com

Well, I have looked high and low around San Diego, and cannot seem to 
find solder that is not Rosin or Acid core.  I can find no one that 
seems to know about the kind of solder that Paul recommends for the 
MOTM build ups.

I want my modules to last a bit longer than I do, so I want to build 
them the right way.  Any suggestions on what I should do to get the 
correct Solder?

Thanks

Bruce

I believe rat shack has it, if all else fails.

Doesn't Mouser ship from somewhere in or near San Diego? I seem to recall 
last time I was ordering from them, I was asked if I wanted to pick it up at 
their "will call" window -- give em a call and see if that's the case.

h3y,
i've had orders from them split.  some came from the bay area, some 
came from texas the next day.  i think it depends on what they have 
in stock where.
i think the solder i ordered came from the bay...
peace,
doc

Get the real stuff from Kester as shown on Moe's website.  I got a roll of
each.  Unless you are Paul S., it will last you a LONG time.   LH

There is a Mouser down here, but seems they will not be 'round until 
Monday AM.

My mighty modular-ette will wait a few more days...
