ot smd sodering

[JARiley at dstsystems.com]

I don't know what all is around the surface where you need to solder, but
I recently did some work with a 24C08 SMT chip and just used some Scotch
tape to tape down the chip onto the mounts (leaving one side open for
soldering).  I then just touched the tip of my iron to my .022" soldering
wire to get a bead and one by one soldered the pins down.  And as the best
performer ever on American Idol said, "I have no professional experience."

ot smd sodering

I was wondering if any one had suggestions for smd sodering.   the
connector for a wireless antena broke off...   it has 5 point connector
to connect the antenna to the board...  center goes to center wire of
antenna  other 4 are common to the braiding  I was thinking of  heating
the center point and then  the corners after the center was attached.
figured some one might have a better suggestion.
