wow... it's like it totally fooled me into thinking it was ok then
reverted back again. Cleaned the board..no result.
THIS IS WILD though listen to this
1) all the outer buttons are never affected. Eg. the modulation
buttons. The upper two to the right.... and then all four on the far
right.
2) The footage buttons also seem to never be affected though..I thought
they were before. hmm
3) Every other button may be altered randomly though the pwm button
seems to rarely impact other things unless there is some other 'history...
4) the programmer section though it's on a different chip entirely...
will affect the SAME ONES that get affected by buttons on the other
side!! Yet the display on the programmer is never affected (Save the
cursor led which is supposed to blink whenever stuff is changed)
the only common element here is the interrupt line which merges from the
two Data Available lines from the 923 chips!!
Wow. What a weird one. I'm ready to shoot it. Dug into the PE1000 I
got in today that got scantly packed yet somehow survived. Yet way more
problems than represented. joy.
