pre jtag mod?

[nicke20]

Just got all my bits to do a couple of jtag installs, ive opened up the first box (a falcon) and it still has its x clamps, should i do a reflow now? and the clamp fix or leave it till it rrod's. looking at the diagrams, once the jtag is in id have to unsolder the wire to the front daughter board to get the box apart later

use the underside aud clamp point and this will leave the argon point on the daughter board out of the equation. much more reliable.

thats it you can still use db1f1 and aud clamp, you will need a smc to suit.
