This month, Shaun Munson, KØSMM, and Bryan Leavitt, WØBCL, will be addressing soldering. After an overview of the fundamental theory, there will be soldering stations available so you can get hands-on experience. There will also be a contest to see who can do the best job soldering a PL259 (aka UHF) connector, with a prize for the winner. If you have a small item that you need soldering help with, bring it along, and Shaun and Bryan will assist as time allows.
