Sorry to keep hammering this stepper driver issue on the geda board but my
collaboration options are very limited.

This kayak steering via a nema 23 stepper is driving me BONKERS!  I had it
working prior to last summer but then spent 4 months in the hospital
critical, got out, worked on the shifting code, now the steering isn't
working and I can't figure out for the life of me what changed!

To sum up: I am using the Pololu DRV8825 stepper driver that I set up on a
bread board with a microchip pic16f1937.  I have verified with an usb logic
analyzer that all the control signals to the drv8825 are correctly
programmed and that the output A+, A-, B+ and B- signals are what they are
supposed to be without the stepper connected.

I then connected a new stepper and it made a soft whining sound but did not
turn.  I am certain it is wired correctly.  Now the stepper does not appear
to work.

I am sure I ordered a 12V 2.0 A stepper but looking at the motor tag it
says 1.2V and 2A which probably explains why it didn't work and is now not
working.

Does anyone know of a good source for a nema 23 stepper motor?  The drv8825
is rated for 2A and my kayak trolling motor is not difficult to turn so I
don't believe it needs to be high holding torque.

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks,
Rob
