Burke,
Check the soldering on the encoder pins. It does sound like you have an
encoder problem if some kind - maybe a bad encoder - in all the KX1s
that I have built and repaired (I have not kept count, but it is not a
small number), I have found only one bad encoder, but even though it is
rare, it can still happen.

Okay gang...I have finished up part one of the build. I applied power
today and all the voltages checked out fine. The LED lit up, the
display worked.... until....
I hit the menu button and LED appeared on the display. Then I tried
turning the VFO knob to cycle through the menus, but it would only
sparodically change menus. As I turned the VFO knob, every so often,
very random the display would change to another menu item. Something
appears to be wrong.....
I can't see any solder bridges, etc, all parts for Part One are installed.
I am a complete electronics newbie, but can follow instructions well.
I would love some ideas!
