Fixing remote turn on
#1
The remote turn on terminal is loose on my old Punch 40, I had a look at it, any chance I could solder it back on with my Weller soldering iron, or do they pass too much heat through the board?

it should be fine as long as you don't heat it for to long
if your an amateur i would recommend a proper iron
to much heat will cause the copper trace to seperate from the board
if you heat it to when the solder flows then add some new solder with resin core flux it should create a good solder joint again
most people either don't heat it enough or heat it to much

so you would reconmend a soldering iron for first timers on the circuit board cause i got fix an amp for my firend and the last thing i want to do is fry it. Mind you the amp was free but i dont want to be the reason it doesnt work. The remote and ground have come off the circuit board partially.

Get a cheap iron for $15 and it will save yer butt on circuit boards.
