@Joshua Alexander Board updates
Communication with Mo sounds challenging; we need to make our hypotheses include hand soldering as root cause
Headers soldered at 350º C
@Alex Moreno noticed a via cutout shape around vias that are typical in Altium vias but not present in Kicad vias that may prevent excess heat flow away from pin during soldering
Success with epoxy and hot plate w/ glass bowl on top to trap heat
Dropping off more parts for assembly today as long as @Austin Patel and @Alex Moreno don’t find showstopping issues with testing today
