>[1] The parts really have gotten mis-programmed to LC mode.

We have a batch a PIC16C73A-04/SO parts which are programmed to XT, but
only have LP drive and therefore don't work with our resonator circuit.

Burning other chips (same tube) to HS resulted in almost-XT-level drive on
the outputs, and therefore work.

Anybody else have similar comments?  Perhaps Microchip messed up?
