Ok, next issue:  Are the leads bent around and soldered to the top like that 
picture above?  If so, that would explain why I have to rock the corner with 
the RST* line up to get it to start - the motion would pull the lead down 
against the pad.

The bad news is that I'll need to excavate in from the side (or top) to get 
there.  Either way, this does not look like my idea of fun.

Given that my unit is potted with what appears to be black epoxy, I'd 
appreciate any tips or suggestions on a surgical strategy.
