I have 63/37, core size 66, .79mm diameter. ( It was either Mouser  
533-24-6337-6403 or 24-6337-8802)

Not strange at all. I'm to the point what I've eliminated all of the  
variables but the solder. It's got to be something to do with the  
solder. I don't know exactly what the specs are on the 331 that John  
Blacet includes in his solder packs, but that's what I was using  
before I dug into the reel I got from Mouser.

Thanks for the advice!
