I've tried that with mixed results; mainly no go. In fact, generally, if I don't
mess with it (as specified above), it won't even go into self test.

Um, like I tell my mother - "most of the time".

However, I seem to find this problem either way. The DIP doesn't seem
to seat in those ZIFs very well. They seem to rock across the center of the
plug (as in, they pivot across the long axis).

Maybe it's just that those ZIFs, at least when combined with the particular
DIPs Fluke used, suck. The fact that the pods otherwise (seem to) work
perfectly, supports that theory.

Does anyone know what the 00 error is?
