good silver solder that won't break the bank

[soloz2]

I do have some flux. Can't you get rosin core silver bearing solder though?

welbourne labs solder is rosin core, as for other brands, i haven't tried any, so i can't really comment

The point was that with some good flux, the difference in brands and types of lead based solders becomes a minor thing. Flux keeps solder very workable in normal blends.

I found the Kester flux "magic marker" pen and .015" No Clean 63/37 are a good combination. For 0805 and SSOP, I think 15 mil is the way to go. As for silver, is there anyone here who claims that it makes an audible difference

?

Wonder solder - it contains silver, really easy to work with and it does'nt crack with time.
