I can't  see anything really out of the order from looking. Both 
belts are new and  appear to still be fine. The battery light works 
of course but never  illuminated the whole time. I have no idea where 
to start here. I know,  the first thing I should do is call John 
Hervey. I did, and he's out of  town for a few days so no help there 
for the time being. I'd appreciate  any insights, tips, and advice on 
what to do here, or even an explanation  of what could be going on. 
Should I grab my tools and head out tonight and  put the Motorola 
back in to make sure I can get to work tomorrow morning??  (yes the D 
is my only car) Thanks a lot everyone for any help  whatsoever!

Dave,
 
Are you sure the belts are the proper tension? Sounds like the alternator  
belt has gotten a little loose - maybe you didn't tighten everything down on the 
 alternator mounts properly.
