Clean Through Holes: Solder Wick Flux Magic! #shorts

Clean Through Holes: Solder Wick Flux Magic! #shorts

See how solder wick makes cleaning pin headers quick and easy. Flux helps transfer heat, pulling solder into the wick. A simple, effective solution!

🚀 Turn your old radios into digital-mode powerhouses! In this video, I show you the TOADs DI board and the new DI6 daughter board — a plug-and-play sound card interface that connects your radio to your computer over USB-C.

With just one board, you can run:
• Winlink 📡
• APRS 🚗
• FT8 🌐
• ANY digital mode you want

No more struggling with cables, custom wiring, or expensive interfaces — the TOADs DI6 makes it simple. (Of course if you like that kinda thing, the TOADs DI is for you!)

📌 In this video, I’ll show you:
• What the DI6 is and how it works
• How to connect it to your radio & PC
• Live demo of digital modes in action
• Why it might be the easiest way to bring your rig into the modern digital world
