Press
it in and be done. I believe you had this come up when you first moved to Tulsa.
They were pressing and soldering, because that's the way they always had done
it. For one thing the finish on some press fits is not very solderable. For
another it costs money and I doubt there is any real gain in reliability. The
press fits are designed to be pressed not soldered.

Hi All!
Got a question, if
you have a board that has a press-fit connector on it, would you press it in
and automatically solder it?
Or would you press it in and be
done?
Just trying to see if I'm missing something...
