Well, that is AIQ (an interesting question). I searched the net and found
TMM (too much material), and none of them had SMOBC (solder mask over bare
copper) and some didn't even have PCB (printed circuit board,
PolyChlorinated Biphenyls, or Process Control Block). PL (pretty lame) IMO
(in my opinion) but IDHTTTM (I don't have time to try more). Until ABA (a
better answer) comes along, here are AFLTT (a few links to try):

GL (good luck) and HAGW (have a great weekend) TTFN, Jack

        Hello all....

        I have a silly request.  Since I usually lend a passive ear to most
of the discussions here I find that I am losing my ability to recognize all
of the acronyms used.  For example, something as basic as 'SMOBC' leaves me
guessing as to what all of the letters stand for.  Does anyone know of a
published list of acronyms and their meanings and even a list of basic
industry definitions?
