Hi Allan,
Excellent, very pleased to hear you got everything up and running ! Also thanks for the positive feedback, very much appreciated.
Yes soldering does take a little bit of practice. One of the main reasons for designing the PCB with through plated holes was to make the soldering easier as the holes are effectively tinned through the board. The downside of this is that it makes (in my opinion) it much more difficult to get a component out of the board once soldered in. Solder pumps and de-solder braid are less effective if the hole is through plated.
Horses for courses I suppose.
Good job & clear skies,
Dave
