Re: First chip ready

[Shannen Durphey <shannen@grolen.com>]

Yes, Todd, there is a good Rat Shack part.  I use a Catalogue #
64-2051B for removing eproms.  If the lift-n-cut guys realized how
well this works, they'd change their ways. ; )  I use .032 dia solder
for installing new eproms or sockets.  Get the iron warm, apply slight
pressure to the memcal/eprom joint, you'll quickly feel the solder
break free.  After every 2 or 3 times, I tap the iron to remove any
solder buildup.  Good luck.

Is there a good Cheap Iron from Radio Shack or something to get that will fit down in the confined space? I am going to solder a socket in so I don't need to keep doing this once I get the old prom out.
