Hi Ya'll!!

It's picture time again! Got some boards in at incoming inspection that are
really weird looking Go to:

http://www.driveway.com/share?sid=e25a88c4.8e904&name=Pictures

Look at Pits.jpg and Pits2.jpg...very, very strange! Never have seen
something like
this before...and it's only on the backside of the board? What could cause
this?

Looking in the IPC-A-600F, it only talks about reductions in conductor width
of more than 20% (for class-2), but doesn't talk about reductions in
thickness by pits such as these...it's hard to tell if they've gone all the
way through the trace because the pits are filled with solder mask and you
can't see all the way down to the bottom of the pits.

Common sense tells me that these boards are rejectable...am I right?
