[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1056307, member: 176704"] Maybe it's a bit like those on my old (but very handy) sat beeper where the connectors kept breaking off the board until i I fixed the problem as per para 2 - the F-connectors on that fit over the edge of the board, with two relatively large grounding lugs on the underside and the coax centre connection on the upper side. If so, you will probably have to remove the board from the case, clean up the solder pads on both sides and then resolder all three - mine needed a faily high power solder gun to melt enough solder to make solid joints, and I agree with CH that using old leaded solder will probably be easier than trying to do the job with lead-free stuff.
