Steve,
As a life long EE, I would not have put up with that for
a minute. Either the circuit would get redesigned, or the
vendor of defective parts get banned.
But, I have always been a bit of a hard-ass about stuff like
that.

Chuck,
He would change them 3 or 4 at a time. Now we see two or three over 5 or 6 units. The 6130C uses 22 (or so) and the OEM HP ones were unstable. HP got better, but at the time (1979) they broke at the drop of a hat.
Other folks, Monsanto, LiteOn, etc, all seemed more stable and reliable.
