Yep Jerry, I am with you on this one. I have my soldering station dialed way up. Hot and fast is the way to go. Also you have to use good solder. I use some nice Qualitek stuff that Jim McShane turned me on to. 60/38 with 2% silver and fairly high flux content. If flows very quickly and makes very nice joints. Never had bad ones since I started using it 3 or 4 years ago.

Hi Don,
Anything Jim recommends, I'm interested in. What is the part number of this solder? Is it leaded or unleaded. TIA!

Sorry, I didn't check this thread for a while.
Qualitek 32021 is what I buy. I usually get it from this guy, but you can get it from other places I am sure:

I think it comes in larger rolls, larger diameters etc... I find this size works well in point to point tube gear. It is really good solder and a bit cheaper than the boutique brands.
cheers,
Don
