The National socket that seems to offer better mounting has only lug connections, while the Johnson has lug and solder connections. Do solder connections offer better performance, or are the two connection methods pretty much a wash?

Can you post a picture? I don't recall ever seeing anything on these sockets except solder lugs. They're held in place with #10 screws through the ceramic base.

  Here is a picture. Looks like he only has one, so not really an option.....

    I haven't used that type. I'm sure it's supposed to have solder lugs between the washers, they've just been removed. Incidentally, not all of these are for the same pinout. If you wire them as marked, and it turns out the G and P are swapped, you'll have trouble. Not really a problem as long as you know about it, but I'd prefer to have those markings in the correct locations if possible.
