Improving Circuit Board Connections

[Ken Miller K6CTW]

All,

I was talking with one of our vendors this past week when he mentioned a
product that their network folks and others used when they had issues
with a circuit board not working as advertised or when it had
intermittent connections.

The product that they use is called Satbilant.

Thought this might be of interest to the K3 builders as it could be very
useful especially if the K3 was going to be operating in high vibration
environments or was going to go on a DXpedition.

I used Deoxit Gold when assembling the K3 18 months ago.  So far so good.
