Wait!!!! I have a PS here! After re-reading PETE's post above, perhaps the wiring error might be that the wiper fin connects on the TAB to both positive and ground fins. If i removed the ground fin from the TAB so when the floating wiper when pressed would only touch the positive fin of the TAB, and the ground fin on the TAB would have a wire from the TAB to the ground rail on the breadboard might that fix the TAB to be correct? So in the end result there would be a wire from the positive side of the Tab to the pin3 column on the breadboard, and a wire from the negative side of the TAB to the ground rail on the bottom of the breadboard, and when the TAB is pressed the wiper fin would onlyl touch the positive wire to pin3 and away we would go! Some options for you guys -- YES, NO, or just give in and GO AWAY! (haha) Also, the reason for the boolean 5 part is because I plan to hook up more switches on pins 1, 2, 3, 4 but felt it better to get just one actually operational before executing my less than wonderful soldering skills on a bunch of tabs!
I should probably consider sending you guys all a check!!!!
Thanks, Tom
