Hi Don,
Ref K2 #6698:
I tried a new encoder but it did nothing different than the original
encoder. Tonight I see that ENC-A is only 2v p-p while ENC-B is 5v p-p.
This is measured right on the encoder terminals and on the U6 MCU chip.
I don't see any resistor network pull ups on these lines. Do you think
the MCU could have gotten hurt with the spike on the 14v VCC line that
shorted the one final and that VCC filter cap? I see data on both ENC
lines when I spin the encoder. The Encoder VCC is a solid 5.0vdc. All
other functions work on this radio except anything where I need to turn
the encoder to access something in a menu or change anything. The radio
receives fine on whatever the display freq is and transmits fine on the
same freq on all bands. I just can't change any VFO digit other than the
far right digit, or if I spin the encoder shaft left & right, it will
slowly increase the displayed freq but not go down.
