I've got an unknown if working 6100 that was once in a Space Duel. Am doing the Bob cap kit, addit parts kit, and a v1.5 LV2000 kit that I've had for longer than I can remember.
I've successfully fixed 3 of these, so I know just enough to be dangerous.
In cleaning the boards, it appears they have never been soldered on at all. I already see a LOT of cracked solder joints on the header pins.
Since they used IDCs, would it be worthwhile to replace all of the IDCs with new molex housings and trifurcon pins in an effort to "bulletproof", or would that be a waste of time?
