Socketing/Soldering Shop

[architechnik]

Looking for a place that will do some solder work.

I've been searching in Southern Oregon for someplace to get my EPROM socketed, but I'm at a loss.
I have not been able to find a place that will do it, electronic shop or otherwise, even when I haven't told them what it was on.

I would prefer to keep it in the NW to limit the shipping.

Pina Motorsports in Kent WA will do it for 50 dollars ...and he does a great job

It looks like most places are right at 50 bones.
I'm just so hesitant, as this was the ECU that came in my car, not one I bought. I want to make sure i get the old image off of that chip... It's like removing the brain from your child and then shipping it off to school. or maybe I've watched too many sci-fi anime.

If you don't mind shipping it, then I would recommend Steve. Profile - Website

Oh, hey. I didn't realize that that was his site. I came across it while I was looking for places.

I was trying to keep the shipping to a minimum, but it looks like UPS ground is pretty much the same going anywhere.

EDIT: Oh, it looks like USPS flat-rate box will work even better!

I'm sending it out to Steve tomorrow morning, assuming the USPS office is open tomorrow. I'll get the capacitor replacement as well, just to protect my investment. Thanks for your opinions, guys.
