Caddock Resistors and PCB
« on: 6 Feb 2007, 10:52 pm »
I bought a Cornet2 Kit and it came with Caddock MK132 resistors.

These I guess are on a .20" centers where the PCB has standard .50" centers.

What is the best way to solder these guys on?

Thanks

Hey!

  The same way you do with other resistors. Just spade those legs out and solder them. Or you could just bend those legs to make it look neater. :D

   BTW... for best soldering and connection. Do use xacto knife to lightly scrape those legs where the solder will be before solder. :D

Take care,

Thanks SETMan!

Thats what I thought I had to do.

No worrys about picking up noise?

A few of these have very short leads, will be fun to try and deal with them.

I have the AuriCaps and was wondering if it would be worthwhile to upgrade to SoniCaps?
