       The moo gun is all the rage, but I was glad to have this tool around when I had to desolder 48 DIL-16 RAM Chips from the IBM 3274-51R today.  Seven of them tested bad, which gives me some hope.  I'm not out of the weeds yet, though, as I still need to get the solder out of most of the holes.  The board is very difficult to work with. #retrocomputing #ibm #mainframe #soldering

       @hanshuebner What is it? A google for the machine type doesn't really help me explain what it does.

       @penguin42 It is a machine to connect 3270 Terminals to a mainframe. This unit has a V.24/RS232 uplink, which can be configured for SDLC or X.25.
