In the past I have used "single pin receptacles" to improve Hi Speed performance. Their use eliminates the "sockets". Digi-Key has the Mil-Max product in all pin and socket diameters. Page 218 in Digi-Key Catalog No. TO23 (Sep-Dec 2002). Put the "single pin receptacles" on the component pins, prior to installing on the board, to insure alignment with the board holes and solder them carefully. Avoid excess heat to protect the component. This is effective for all components that need improved stray capacitance (Hi Frequency) mounting. It is tedious to use for multi-pin IC's but effective.
