Hi Kerry, I do not wish to turn this subject in to a debate, but consider this� If every technical question posted resulted in a commercial reply (company name, model number, phone number, price, features and benefits, etc), then there would be lit

Oooo, big bucks wusher!!! Consider the SMTnet Archives a valued resource. For instance, look at: http://www.smtnet.com/Forums/index.cfm?fuseaction=view_thread&CFApp=1&Thread_ID=1632&mc=2 As far as your resistivity measurement is concerned, you hav
