Thanks for all the help on my blank display problem.  I've followed everybody's 
suggestions.  I even resoldered every point.  Checked r15&r16. And other 
things. But when I turn it on I still get the lighted display with no words or 
anything.  And I hear a click a second or two after I turn it on. . .like a 
relay.  I've priced the three biggest chips but it's to much for me to invest 
for now.  The only suggestion I didn't do was to lift the display up to 
resolder the chip holder that's under it. I'm afraid of breaking the display. 
Nice looking rig.  Sure would like to use it someday.  If some of you will 
recall, I picked this up with the front board and control board complete.  I 
carefully (or so I thought) retraced every step in the manual and am up to 
phase 1 of the testing and calibration.  I made sure every piece was installed 
correctly (as best as I could being a rookie).  I found a couple of things but 
it was usually just pieces not seated in good, which I fixed.

PS.. At this point I wouldn't mind someone coming over here and helping me get 
past this wall.  thanks
