Clay,

Speaking of PLCCs. What are your thoughts on using SMT in small runs for
things like vectorlist projects. DIPs are easy to assemble. PLCCs and other
SMT devices in through hole sockets are, well, basically DIPs. But for small,
<50 unit runs, can SMT be employed effectively? Can you imagine a CAT box with
a BGA inside! I doubt it would be worth (or cost effective) sending them
overseas. Have you considered this technology for any of your projects?
