Aha! Are you satisfied all the components are in the right place and of the
right value? I keep looking at your board and I can¹t see anything obvious.
Do you want some comparison voltages from a working board so you can gauge
your own readings?
BTW. Don¹t worry about the battery gaff, easy enough mistake to make.
However, make sure that you haven¹t flattened it (i.e. It still gives you 3V
at the terminals).
Cheers,
Andy
