I'm going to write "74HCT166" in this thread, just so that the next guy that searches for that chip can find this thread.

I started out using the 166, but the 165 is also good for my application. Maybe including the word here can save someone else the headaches I had trying to get the 166 to work.

Oh yeah, might as well include the other variants:

74HC166
74LS166
