The Wal-Mart mini-torch works well at the top of the tower. Enough heat to get whatever your trying to solder even in a reasonable wind.

| Hey, everyone. | | Remember the thread the other day about soldering PL-259s? Found the | ideal tool for the purpose the other day at Wal-Mart: a Ronson | "TechTorch" mini-torch. Butane-fueled, refillable, and best of all | comes with a catalyst burner with soldering & heat tips, so you can | shrink the heat shrink after you solder the connector. Circa $26 at the | Wal-Mart. Ronson item # 80009. UPC 0-37900-80009-6. | | regards, | | Mahlon - K4OQ | | | | _______________________________________________ | TowerTalk mailing list | TowerTalk@contesting.com | http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk |
