On desoldering out the Video/Audio Jack on the Genny 2, there are BIG ground pins...how do I desolder them to unhook out the jack? :?

Desolder it in sections and then push it out with your soldering iron :) . Works every time!

Hmmm, the problem is that there are 4 HUGE prongs in all, maybe Gabe (G-Force for me) can lend a hand. That's his cue :wink:

get a solder sucker, a solder bulb will work. Heat up the solder till it melts, with the iron still in the solder, use the sucker to suck out the solder. Should remove the solder quite quickly
