All,
Sorry to use the forum for this, but...
Pete,
I just tried sending to the address you sent and it failed. Can you
let me know if my message really went through or drop me another address
to try?
Thanks everyone...

Subject: Re: [TN] Board etching question for you board shops out there.
Scott,
You've received a number of explanations on the causes of ragged edges,
mousebites, (hungry mice) etc. What did the vendor say was the cause?
Did
their explanation agree with the comments of this group?
I would also want to know why these boards shipped. Did the vendor
agree
with you, are there actual violations of the requirements or are you
looking
at poor workmanship issues. (A rough trace that does not go below the
minimum is not rejectable but is ugly.)
Just my two cents worth,
Pete
