AndrzejM, thanks for all your help.

I have abandoned my MPGuino that I put together from the Arduino UNO.

The pre-assembled one I ordered a month ago showed up.

I will say that whatever program he loaded on it is 100x nicer than the old version I was running.

This one seems like it's going to be a lot closer to real numbers vs the old one.

The one I bought was from the link below in case anyone else is interested.

Be warned, shipping is the better part of a MONTH from his country to the Seattle area.

I will also advise, when you look at the included harness do NOT assume that red / black is power. You must look at the circuit board to determine where the wires go. It turned out that white / yellow were the ones that needed power. I simply removed the pins from the connector and re-arranged them so that red/black were power.
