Hey, I am now modding a TG-16. I thought it was going to be easier than
a Duo, but one thing that slows you down is removing all the shielding.
It has many points on the board where it is soldered, but that is where
the desoldering iron comes in handy. I purchased mine from Radio Shack
for $9.99 (45 Watt part number 64-2060). However, I would recommend
getting a smaller desolder tip for it for modding a TG-16 since some of
the points are hard to clean up with the standard tip. The desolder tip
is also great for removing the pins from the board for wiring. I also
put some of these updates on the install instructions:

Make sure you hit F5 if you don't see any changes to get lates update!
Are these instructions helping anyone understand better? If I am
confusing someone, please let me know.
