Ian,
I find that 700 degrees F is good for most of your pc board work. You mithe run it down to 600 degrees F for delicate components or plastic connectors.
800 degrees F is good for older tube equipment, terminal lugs, and power cables or coax (I always solder my Anderson Power Pole connector pins after crimping).

Hi guys,
My Hakko 936 with several T-1 for surface mounted tiny
components arrived today. It is not warm yet.
I have been using an Antex 15 Watt iron since 1971, and
I built my K2 #4962 with it. Now, variable temperature is,
well, a variable that I have never had to consider.
So, my questions:
What temperature do you set with 60/40 solder on such as
a K2, and perhaps a different temperature when soldering
an AD9851?

Ian, G4ICV, AB2GR, K2 #4962, LP-100 #278
