Make sure you understand how? RV1 works. You wrote:It's true that I did move RV1 and RV136 before. I just checked to see what they were on when I obtained these readings and, as I had thought, they are both turned fully clockwise. I turned them down all the way so I don't mess up and blow the new mosfet inadvertently when it gets here.

remember that RV1 (PA BIAS) works backwards from what you might think.Fully clockwise should give a 0 amp reading and turning it counter clockwise will increase PA current

Try the software that Vince ?suggests.
If you can't hear a signal on your communications receiver, I already sent you a 2nd special version that forces your receiver to 7.075 MHz. ? I can send it again tomorrow. If you have lost it.? ?

That is correct. However we've already established that the Raduino
works, just now with Allard's bitx software. Get the software here:
You want the file bitx40.ino. It's Farhan's software so there are no
bells or whistles. The reason for installing this one is to make sure
the radio works with the original software. Once we have that working
we'll tackle Allard's software.
Ok great...I'll do that. If that DOESN'T work, I'll do the modification to Gordon's previous sketch to try and make it output to a frequency on 40. Then I'll report back with my findings.
