I haven't tried their chip shooters but I haven't found anything(SMT) that couldn't be placed by a GSM. They are very user friendly and come with good support. If you need specific answers to questions, feel free to ask.

Could someone please tell me if it is possible that erroneous 'leakage current' readings in an instrument could be inheritated by the type, design and fabrication of the PCB itself, if so then where could I find information relating to this subject.
