[hpsdr] New Docs Wiki Page for Hermes Builders

[Rob Frohne]

Hi,

Here is the wiki page 
<http://openhpsdr.org/wiki/index.php?title=Hermes_Board_Build_Notes> for 
Hermes builders with solder paste gerbers, photos (Thanks Robin!), 
revised BOM (with components separated out by front and back side), and 
a color coded component placement diagram for the back side so you can 
easily place all the components of like value all at once.  My next step 
is to work on a similar diagram for the front side.

I used the solder stencil for the back side, placed the components using 
the color coded diagram above, reflowed it in our oven, and it worked 
very well.  It took about three hours for the back, but if my components 
had been better organized, it would have been maybe 50% faster.  The 
front will be much more involved.  :-)

73,

Rob
