Jerry, it is quite probable that 5 pin is shorting to the ground. Look very 
carefully.

Is there supposed to be 5v on pin 5 of the digital board?  I have 5v on
pin 2 but nothing on pin 5.  I tried the pullup resistor, didn't work. 
I changed the 4k7 to 47k on Q23, didn't work, still stuck in transmit.
