ok tested my cable, it works fine with rx and tx tied together, hooked up to PIC, same problems, its using such a basic program it must be the inverted stuff, I will try the triss as input for both.

If you have usb to ttl cable, then you connect pic directly to cable. And you must connect GND, PIC_Tx to cable Rx, and cable Tx to PIC_Rx.
If you do not have scope, use simple led with resistor connected between Vcc and TX pin. Led will flash when you send data.
