Dummy Load

20W Dummy Load kit from Pacific Antennas.
Easy build but I made a mess by starting off with the wrong tips - hoof tip and knife tip were waaay too big for the through-hole kit.
I think I had the iron temp too low as well.
I was trying under 400C since I had new tips - lead-free definitely needs 410-420C.

Not pretty but it works.
Learned a few things for the next build.
