Hi Guys,
I put my tuning indicator kit together this weekend that Tom N0SS was 
selling. Tom you did an outstanding job packaging the kit. I soldered the 
SMD components on the board per the PDF file that Tom provided on his web 
site. My tuning indicator does not work. I have 5 volts on pins 1 and 8 on 
the FSK chip. I have tripled cheked all the connections and the components 
on the circuit board. Every thing looks good with my high power magnifying 
glass. I am using 500 hz side tone. When I turn the trim pot on the SMD 
board clockwise or counter clockwis the 10th LED does not light up. I have 
turned it more than 5 turns both directions. I have the K2 tuned to the 
birdie at 4.0000 on the 80 meter band.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for further trouble shooting?
Thanks,
Glenn WA7SPY
