Default Re: Homebrew RF power meter mark 2

Will do. Waiting for another board run now after I screwed the last one up

If your SMD skills are a bit iffy, it's worth hitting a cheap £1 SMD practice kit for aliexpress/ebay/banggood. The one with the circle in the middle. Buy two as they don't always get the bits right. Just need some fine solder, flux pen, tweezers and some isopropyl alcohol and a paint brush to clean it with and done. Can also recommend a pint down the pub first to iron out any jiggly hands

Without alcohol I can solder an 0603. With alcohol, 0402

Edit: I'll post some applications in here as well.
