Neil,
I don't quite understand your finish but I will try to help you a little.  If
the finish is silver then to solder to this takes a higher temp.  If the
finish is gold over the brass you might have gold migration into the solder
joint and what you are really seeing on inspection is the brass which cannot
be soldered to in a consistent way.

The best finish is a nickel over the brass finished with a tin-lead plating.

All of this is just an opinion but it should spark more responses if I am
wrong.

Come on Jack and Jim, let Nick and I know if I am correct.

Linda
