[Elecraft] KX1 Menu display looks odd

[Koaps]

I was able to seat U1 all the way finally after
checking all the pin depths with a clipped lead.

The menu options are still messed up.

Somethings look fine, the freq numbers are counting
ok,   it displays E09 and E10 ok(tried resetting the
chip but powering on holding menu and band) but some
of the options are still not looking right.

Something is wrong somewhere. Is there something
besides the U1 MCU that effects the display of certain
menu options? If needed I can note exactly which menu
choices and how they look, maybe take pictures if
needed.

Any help would be appreciated, the MCU U1 is seated
all the way now.

thanks,
-Chris
