Hi Kip...

Thanks! Naturally you're right.

Perhaps this is the first time this one's been out... sprayed
it with a little wd-40 just to wet it and it slowly but
surely jerked out... inch by inch. Tough part is keeping
it going straight.

Anyway, appears to be old dry sticky left over flux on
the edge of the board.. gonna gently sand it off in case
it needs to come out again.

Thanks again, and take care.

Ken


I am pretty sure it was that chassis...I worked on one once, and it
worked well when out of the tray, but not when inside. It turned out
that the tray was pushing a blob of solder on the edge of the board
down, causing a bridge.
