 		 #102355 - visual clues
Responding to: ???'s previous message
As mixing lead free and 60/40 solder is a "DO NOT", is there an easy way tell lead free from 60/40 on a pcb. Is it visible? Any other non-destructive way to determine? (Without fancy chromatographic equipment).

Just curious, and in the mean time I'll be using my supply of 60/40 solder untill I run out. (should in the next 5 years ;-))

regards

Patrick
