A gun no matter how high watt isn't any good because the tip doesn't have the metal mass needed for soldering a uhf male outside. You'll never find the big irons at Lowe's or Home Depot. Berland's Ho

My Weller 100/260 Watt soldering gun works fine for soldering PL 259's inside or outside. However, I have found that the connections between the soldering gun tip holders and the tip gets corroded an

Now that's the way to heat up a pl-259! With one of those you could start a jumper business. The monthly TRW fest is one of the nice things about living out in S. Cal. rob / k5uj ____________________

My favorite is an old Japanese multiwatt(out in the shop and too far to check exact wattage!) iron. Made for the 100V used over there. Gets real hot, real fast here. 73 Don K5AQ _____________________

Wattage is not the only figure of merit of import to soldering. Also of interest is the heat capacity of the heated mass and the thermal resistance of the path for heat flow to the tip. A high wattag
