❒ 83. Install the battery snap terminal in the two holes below S1, making
sure that the positive (red) lead is inserted into the (+) hole on the PC
board.
❒ 84. The battery bracket may be attached in a variety of ways. A wire
jumper can be passed through the two holes on the PC board, then both
ends soldered on the underside of the board. You may prefer to use very
small screws or even a double-sided mounting adhesive strip or glue. In
using such methods, make sure that the battery will not block the PC
board's mounting hole in its vicinity.
Wiring of the PC board is now complete. If you have the the patience, we
suggest a short break. Then take a magnifying lens and a bright light and
examine all your solder joints, touching up any connection which appears less
than perfect. Make sure all excess leads have been trimmed, and that one is
not bent back flat against the board, possibly causing a short. Brush the solder
side of the board with a stiff brush to make sure that no loose wire trimmings
or solder drippings (tsk tsk) are lodged between connections.
