OK as you can guess I'm at the pc doing the programming right now.

I'm sending SEROUT2 PortA.3,T9600,["BOB",redstop] where variable redstop is allocated redstop = 1

on the other unit ---

I'm trying to receive SERIN2 PortA.2,84,[WAIT("BOB"),signal] to put the received value into variable 'signal' .

If signal =1 then gosub

Whatever combination I try, straight or DEC it doesn't respond.

Am i doing something stupid?
