Hope I didn't bite off more than I can chew here.

I got to the part were you put all the boards together and power up for the
first time.  No smoke... that's a good thing.

When I turned on the K2 I heard a few relays click as the manual suggests
should happen.  But then nothing.  Nothing on the LCD, it didn't even light
up.

I checked F1 and have 13.8v from both sides to ground.

Don't know which pins on the CB should show voltage, but I find that
P3
Pin 7 = 6.5v
17 = 5.1v
(did not check the row of even numbered pins.

P2
1 13.8v
3 5.15
5 8.1
9 8.1
17 5.15
19 5.15
21 8.1
29 4.3

P1
1 8.1v
3 1.4v
5 2.45
6 .56v

I have not taken off the CB yet to see what if anything is getting to the
Front panel board.  Hope it is something simple.

If anyone has any ideas...I sure would appreciate them.

Thanks
