Check all the mixer diodes. Using the tip of your multimeter probe
gently press the legs towards the board and discover any solder given up in the
board's long travel! Do this on RX with a volume turned up. Any increase in
background noise and you have found it.

Wired up my uBitx ver 5 and tried it out stock, I could hear a couple stations on 40, but were very low. Out of the 3 or 5 I heard I could only tune in one of them to the point I could understand them. I upgraded to a touch screen which seems to work fine, but I hear nothing but a low hiss from the speaker now. I do hear plenty of volume when I find a birdie though, so I assume the audio amp is still working.
What I found this morning, is I hear no difference if an antenna is connected or not. I hear no stations at all now.
Am I missing a step, or any suggestions what to look for?
