Chances are that this positioning is the critical part of the

it may be better not to solder the tags together, but to
take a short length of wire and solder one end of it to each tag.

IIRC I wound a bit of wire around the tags to help hold them together
because I needed three hands and also it seemed to help the solder
"hold".

Thanks.
