Over the years I've tried etching boards with various methods. I have
never gotten a good looking trace. Whether the trace area is cleaned and
painted on, or photo sensitive, the edges are always irregular. They
are not straight and taper to a thin edge. Just what you don't want.
Temp, chemicals (Typically Ferric Chloride IIRC), chemical dilution, agitation: All according to directions with the same results. I finally gave up. 73 Roger (K8RI) _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing list TowerTalk@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk |
