[hpsdr] Penelope T2 orientation - soldering

[Joe Martin K5SO]

Mike, 

I happen to use 382 C (hot!) with my tiny iron but using ChipQuik is the absolutely best method to keep from damaging things as hardly any heat is necessary at all to melt the alloy that forms when using ChipQuik to remove parts.  It’s a snap.
