KX1 - 7 displays briefly; then just the single lower left vertical LED segment flashes.

Nicolas Pike
Hi,

KX1 Build.

Thanks for the helpful replies to my last issue (6 volt supply), that is now
resolved!
I have got to page 42. Then on to the Relay checks - all OK. I switched off
the rig then later I switched back on and plugged in my headphones for the
sidetone test. But 7 displays briefly; then just the single lower left
vertical LED segment flashes.
I have tried a reset but as soon as the switches are released the same Led
segment still just flashes.

Is there anything else I should be checking?
Any suggestions appreciated as my planned /P building attempt has now
paused, and I was so close to getting the RX working!

Please reply to [hidden email] as I only get the daily digest.

Thanks Again!!!!

Regards
Nicolas

Nicolas,

Sounds like a loose connection or solder/wire causing the issue.  I highly
recommend going through the board and looking closely at all of the
components and solder connections.  Every problem I ever had was basically
one of solder connections.  Either I missed one or got interrupted and
didn't finish one correctly.

Good luck I know you will figure it out. Don't forget to put it aside and
give it a rest every now and then as well.  It works great to take a break.
Otherwise something so simple can become quite frustrating, at least it does
for me.

72,

Bill
