Bad Data Problem

[Tom Droege <tdroege@veriomail.com>]

It would appear that the bad data problem has been cured.  I finally found 
an open pin on an HC74 that needed to be tied down.  But I am wary of 
claiming victory.  It has only been 24 hours or so.  I have tried all the 
usual operating modes that used to cause problems.  I will just have to 
keep testing and see.

This means MIKE is ready to go out the door.

The next thing on my list is to work on the Stamp code so that the Dec 
motor will stay energized while the clamp is applied.  I think there is 
just enough room to do this.

Beyond this, I am hard pressed to think of things that I want to change.

I have looked at the RA drive, and it will not be easy to extend the range 
beyond it's present 45 degrees.  I have thought up a scheme that uses a 
pulley that might get 120 degrees.  I will think about it.
