Hello, in need of some urgent help. I am having a horibble time soldering
the shield of a coax cable to a copper pad in a circuit. I just can't get
the solder to flow on the shield. What can i do? I don't know if it
matters but the shield has the appeareance of aluminium. I"m hoping this
isn't what it is but really dont' know. Please help. Thanks in advance


Are you trying to solder RG6? Easiest fix is to go buy a piece of RG59, if
you need 75 Ohm coax, or almost any 50 Ohm coax. I gather there is no wire
braid over the Al foil.
