Poorman hot plate soldering.. on my kitchen stove. :P
Some photo blurring added to pcb..
wtf :( I prefluxed the board with water soluble rework flux expired 2003. Looks like the copper has a baked on residue?? I tried water. Then methyl alcohol. Zip.. MEK will probably kill the pots. Oh well...free conformal coating :P
But the soldering turned out great! No shorts or opens found yet..
Comments/questions?
