Thanks for the reply Jerry!! I do not have a scope or really the in depth knowledge to use one.? I did try to upload the firmware back to the raduino and that was successful.I guess there is no harm in me trying to replace the arduino, I don't think I can break it any more than it already is.? I just wish I knew exactly what I did to cause the issue so I dont do it again.? would wiring the TX RX without the button have caused the problem?? I re wired that part with the button - Currently I have the black and brown wire from the PTT jack on the board going to the switch, then I have a black and brown wiring going to the outside pins of the transistor, the middle wire goes to a 4k7 resistor and to the raduino pin.? ?I was pretty happy that I pulled of the build without destorying it until the last step so I dont want to destroy another one LOL
