Jumping up and down in my best Steve Martin voice.
My tuner is here, my tuner is here I'm a real person...

Update, got my green light, the voltage regulators register the +5 and +9 volts DC +/- a few percent and no magic smoke and the creation of new cuss words. My Rio sees the tuner but static only on AM very faint static on FM. I'm now going to take it apart and check to make sure I didn't break the antenna lead.

Any other ideas let me know.
Later

Ok I fubared that one, and since I don't wish to take apart a now working AM/FM tuner I’ll just take a pic of the top. Patrick would know best what pin 2 of the 10 pin female header controls, but I broke that trace I think I used to much heat, so I followed it to I believe pin 27 on IC4 then I used a trace wire to connect them.

WOOT I didn't even have the antenna plugged in and KDWB which is 40-50 miles away came in great. Thanks Patrick for the tuner. Oh on that note you missed one 100nF cap in my kit but my PJRC was happy to be the sacrificial lamb.

Oh the attachment is the pic.
