Hi,<BR><BR><A
href="http://openhpsdr.org/wiki/index.php?title=Hermes_Board_Build_Notes">Here
is the wiki page</A> 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. <BR><BR>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. :-)<BR><BR>73,<BR><BR>Rob<BR>KL7NA<BR><PRE class=moz-signature cols="72">--
