[Halld-tracking-hw] solder recommendations

[Curtis A. Meyer]

Hi Fernando -

   we are looking at how the shield of the connection wire is soldered 
to the
little PC board and considering the tight area where this work will be done.
In looking at it, our first reaction is that it is going to be very 
difficult to clean
all the flux off the solder joints. Thus, our questions to you:

1) Should we be worried about this? (Will remaining flux corrode things 
over time?)

2) Are there solders that we could use that would be considered "clean", or
     at least less prone to corrosion?

3) Can you recommend a solder that we should be using for this hook up?

    thanks in advance - Curtis
