Hi Henry!

I've sent you a *.PDF file from TI that I had on my 'pooter called;
"Palladium Finish Users Manual" (I think it's the same one that Steve Sauer
was speaking of). It's pretty good. Had to calibrate our inspectors here
because the joints WILL look different from your normal tin/lead plated
leads...
