Boards are small though, and a mix of thru-hole and SMT. Feel free to pass on her number. I was asking about hiring a person in-house as I find it easier to deal with companies near me, but have not yet found any competitive companies here in S. FL. I've also had positive experiences with people local to me as well. Price-wise, I am finding most companies to be quite high, so that's another reason for looking to hire someone directly.
