Problem en masse! That must have been tedious work indeed. Honed your soldering skills though I bet.
The eyelets I purchased are meant for PCB repair. I tested them for resistance and used a miniscule of solder paste to ensure adhesion on each.
Still, I can see where dissimilar metals may eventually expand/contract due to temperature, causing breakage. Glad I only needed to do a few of the octal sockets.
The octal sockets are now raised much higher than the board. Was thinking of getting my hands on a temperature probe or gun just to see what sort of temperature swing I get.
As usual I find myself going down the rabbit hole. Admittedly I think I love the hobby part as much as the music.
Cheers!
