Kat,
I'm going to try and bake some but our oven only goes up to 140 degrees F.
I'm not sure if that will do much. Any idea how long you'd have to bake at
140 to do any good?

Richard,
The pinholes are on the through-hole components and come after wave solder.
By sever I mean about 80% of the through-hole leads exhibit out gassing. We
run hundreds of boards through our wave solder every day and this is the
only board we're seeing this on.

Steve,
We just changed the flux Monday and we do a SG check on it every morning to
keep it in balance.

Dewey,
Play Misty for Me :-)

Roger,
Don't go there even though I'm having five bean soup for lunch, ooh!

Thanks,

KennyB

Ken, 

What is the humidity been the last few days?  Can you bake some and then
repeat the run to see if the outgassing continues? I have had PCB's that
when baked lost pin holes/blow holes.

Kat
