on the edge connectors?
Anything the size of an Omnibus board with gold fingers is *not* going
to be "reasonable" especially if you want "hard gold" (which IMHO is
the
only way to go if you want reasonable life of the boards and sockets).
I've used Advanced Circuits for all my boards that needed gold fingers
(they are *not* cheap...you've been warned).? When you submit your
Gerber files, you also specify if you have edge fingers and how you want
them plated.? I have been 100% satisfied with the boards that I've
received from them.
