[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 124764, member: 126"] Re: Strippers!!! Yup the 60s were a long time ago and you know what they say about remembering the 60s. :-) I was working on a DC to DC switching supply for DSRV (deep submergence rescue vehicle), a special navy rescue vessel designed to extract people from submarines on the bottom. The Mil spec-200s (?) was serious about little details like 135' wire wrap around connections, etc. Requiring a strong mechanical connection before the solder. It's all good physics, solder is fluid so without mechanical strength the solder joint can fail over time. yadda yadda. I had some serious ennui when decades later Peavey made all the supervisor and upper management take a basic soldering class. :-( I can relate to the chief executive's anger when an electronics company's supervisor level employees do not even know what a good solder joint looks like, but me?? Been there, done that... JR PS I think that is the first time I ever got to use that word...:-) [/QUOTE]
