Hi Don,
Shorting pin 5 to 4 turns on the 10th LED. I guess my wiring to the front
panel board is good.

Glenn,
As a quick check on your wiring for the LED indicator, short pin 5 of the
output connector to ground (pin 4) and you should see the LED turn on. A
short at this point will not damage the IC - because it is an open collector
output.

If your 'scope will indicate down to 20 mv (I assume that is peak to peak),
you should be quite able to use the oscillator shown in the K2 manual - the
lowest expected voltage indicated in the manual is 0.27 Vrms at the 2nd
Crystal Filter Output and that is 756 millivolts peak to peak.
