Terri and Steve, As always appreciate the input. Don't like the looks of this thing as it has 14 ways from sundown to make contacts through who knows what. I just see electrons attempting to jump ship and test or EE types blaming everything on the BGA that has worked pretty well so far, now that we have some serious issues resolved. I mean, what about impedance and just trying to remove the BGA from the socket. Well, the parts cost so much, I guess there's no other way to go. Thanks again, Earl --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Technet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt or (re-start) delivery of Technet send e-mail to [log in to unmask]: SET Technet NOMAIL or (MAIL) To receive ONE mailing per day of all the posts: send e-mail to [log in to unmask]: SET Technet Digest Search the archives of previous posts at: http://listserv.ipc.org/archives Please visit IPC web site http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-509-9700 ext.5315 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
