Update on the Saga of the lifeless encoder...
I have been chasing encoder issues for a couple of weeks now. We have tried everything, almost. I even ordered the good Bourn encoders in two flavors, they got here and no help. The CEC software would not respond to the encoder to change the frequence for love or money. It would allow menu selection and sub menu selection but not frequency.
To make a long story short, I found the problem and have a fix for it... get a NEW NANO.
After breadbording a UNO and LCD and KY-040, loaded the software and it worked as it should. awesome. So, I laid the two NANOs that I had been using to find the issue aside and stole one from another project. It worked flawlessly... first time, every time..
Moral of the story, when you think you have done everything, there is always something else to do.
Moral #2, keep plenty of NANOs around... lol.
PTL for that solution. I can only give Him credit.
Now I can resume getting my uBitx on the air..
Thanks to everyone for their assistance, advice and encouragement.
