Hello David,
Did you left the frequency counter test cable connected to TP2 (BFO)?

uhh..YES, I did leave the freq counter cable. Is that the problem? I'm
at work right now and can't test it. I'll also try repositioning the
ribbon cable as others have suggested.



Thanks to all that responded on and off list.
