Thanks Don.

At one point I actually reseated U1 just to be sure so I think I'm good
there.

Checked out U5 as you suggested.  Here is what I found:

  Pin  Spec  Meas     Pin  Spec  Meas
   1   1.39    0 <<    5   4.44   5.8 <<
   2   1.39    0 <<    6   5.57   5.7
   3     0     0       7   4.96   5.2
   4   4.44  5.8 <<    8   5.62   5.8

So this sort of implies that U5 is shot as well, no??  Do these readings
suggest any thing else I should check into??  (These results also got me
looking downstream from pins 14 and 22 on U1 that also read abnormal.)

I am guessing I should request a new U5 too?

Any other insights??

Thanks for all the help.  It is appreciated.
