Guys,
Unless you have eagle eyes and tiny fingers, soldering the pins on
this plug is tough.
My solution:
Use a small tip soldering iron!
1) Position the plug in a vice under a magnifier
2) Fill the pins to be soldered with solder
3) Use #24 solid wire which you strip and pre-tin
4) Heat the pin and push in wire.
5) Strip the braid from some RG58 and apply over the wire.
This type of wire is available as telephone wire from radio shack with
four conductors.
