little 6-pin DIP optocoupler that only goes about 65-per board..."

Hi Steve,

I'd be really careful with any sort of opto packaging issues. Optos, due to
the complex nature of their encapsulation/packaging, have more
environmetal problems than any other part type I've seen.  There's
a hodgepodge of materials in there that dont "play well together"
when things go bad.

Proceed cautiously and thoroughly!  Don't suppose you have any of
the reel left, you might send back for analysis? I've found QT to
be fairly responsive...

John
