[time-nuts] REF1 standalone issue now

I found the write-up on getting 10Mhz out.  I added the resistors and cap and brought it out the 15Mhz connector after separating it from the 15Mhz drive.

I booted it up and I have a Yellow No GPS light and a Red Fault.  The unit sees the GPS antenna as when I disconnect it the GPS light blinks.  I have the interface plug jumper with 2-8 and 3-13 shorted.  I’ve seen others that say to take 2 and 3 to 8 and I will try that next.  I was very careful in the entire process as it is tough to get the motherboard out of the frame.  I am getting 10Mhz on the 15Mhz TP as expected.  This is using the original REF1 GPS board.
Any ideas?  Not seeing any sats on lady heather at all.  The antenna is known to be good.

Thanks, close but I hope I didn’t do more harm than good.

Jerry
