[OM] Problem with Olympus 35 SP

I recently bought a used Olympus 35 SP in apparently beautiful shape. However, 
there seems to be a problem with the shutter. The meter works fine, the film 
advances, as evidenced by the rewind lever turning, and the shutter makes what 
seems like a normal firing sound when the shutter button is pressed. But, even 
when fired on B, the shutter blades do not open and nothing registers on the 
film. Also, on every shutter speed setting the sound of the shutter firing is 
exactly the same--sounds like about 1/200 sec. Am I screwing up, or is the 
shutter malfunctioning? Does this sound familiar to anyone? I much appreciate 
any advice. Thanks.

Les
