I much rather have the option of communicating with a PC over a little bit of speed.
Hi, Malc

Good settings always work fine ...

BTW you also could have ordred some 16 Mhz Xtals ... just to test the behaviour.

AND ... using analogic sensors could have permitted to try some " exotic " frequencies ( in the 12 -16 Mhz range, but not corresponding to a PBP define )

[Humour ON]
Or you could have rewritten your program for a compiler the same origin as your testboard ... ( Xtal frequency can be freely chosen )
[Humour OFF]

Glad it works fine ...
