[hpsdr] Penelope T2

[Sid Boyce]

I am not familiar with the item but the easiest way to remove SMT parts 
is to use Chipquick low melting point solder or paste.

Where the item is very close to other parts and the hot air gun's nozzle 
is much larger than needed, erecting a screen, sort of a funnel of 
aluminium foil around the part is the safest way.
