Yeh, they and many other things get shorted out often. Our design engineers,
in their infinite wisdom did many things wrong. There's one 3 inch square
analog area they placed at the corner of an 11x11" board with you know what
- about a dozen of those blue beuaties, electrolytic caps that is so wave
solder a necessity. Some other through hole stuff as well that needn't be.
Could have been SMT or left on the R/F daughter card. It's all a big compromise.

Just thinking out loud really about the bottom side solder shields. Anyone
else so I don't have to go to blind vias or wave pallets?
