[TowerTalk] CORDLESS SOLDERING IRON

[AA6DX - Mark]

NO, & NO -- I have 2 of those battery irons, and had terrible luck using 
them on a tower -- matter of fact, I don't even know where they are right 
now!  HIHIHI..  BUT -- I also have a butane iron, and it was more 
acceptable.  The real way I was successful was to pull an extension cord up 
the tower and use a REAL soldering iron .. .. .. The hints about using a 
wind shield of some sort is a swell idea, too.  If you are happy with 
crimping coax connectors, and have the proper tool, I would go with that!

Anyone have luck using battery charged soldering iron up on a tower? Do they 
get hot enough?
