Re: Still Not Working
You may wish to take this opportunity and remove the nano and as I did solder in a inline header so you can remove future Nano's. A low profile socket is helpful so you can later connect the display

Re: Still Not Working
Curt and David I get that when the Arduino has not fully initialized the LCD display. It can be caused by the RE or EN lead not making good contact. I have this sometimes when using a prototype

Mouse encoder?
This is just speculation, I haven't tried it myself having not yet delved into the programming to activate it: Has anyone tried the guts of a PC-mouse as an encoder? I'm thinking a mouse with

Re: W8TEE TFT/ VFO DISPLAY BOARD
Thanks that's the picture i'd been looking for. Together with the recommendation to use buffered output for the VFO this clarifies wireup a lot. Thank you very much for the great work Jack

Re: Still Not Working

Re: W8TEE TFT/ VFO DISPLAY BOARD BOARD
Assuming your DDS is the type that has three rows of seven pins be sure that the jumper at J3 is in place. Also, not that there is an easy fix, but you might check to be sure it¡¯s an AD9850 and not

Re: Still Not Working
Grab your voltmeters guys. Check the input and output voltages of the 3 term regulator hanging off the side. Also try unplugging the connectors going in and plugging the Raduino in to your PC. Vince.
