Ed,

As a tech type with a lot of years invested, I've found the simple is
usually the culprit.  Always go back to the basic. Mark did an excellent
follow through.

Mark,

Great news!  I think mamy of us were guessing there was a dc power problem
and you found it.  An old mentor of mine in my professional life made a
fatefull observation about troubleshooting.  Don't get sidetracked with
complicated possibilities.  Most problems are simple!  It has been a mantra
to ease my 40-years of troubleshooting electronics, and I have found that
it's very true.

Glad you have got it solved.  And now you have a little experience that you
can file away for future reference.
