Yaesu FT-100d mod problem

Post by rematzz »

Sorry I know it's another ft100d question.

I had a go at the tx mod on it, the problem I have got is that the jumper I have to remove (R6036) will not move at all, it just will not come out.

Anyone got any ideas of what I could do to get it out.

Thanks in advance

It might be glued to the board, but temperature should soften the glue.
Does the solder melt? I usually had no problems with different smd job I've done. Keep in mind, that lead-free solder needs higher temperature. Also without hotair you must warm that element both sides at the same time.
According to that photo no glue underneath.
