Framing error if I disable transmitter after shift register is empty?

[Demon]

checking your stuff........ if you use interrupts (DT ints), for RX interrupts, you would not use PB hserin in the int routine. Rather get the characters in your routine and store them in the locations you designated and advance counter and check for some beginning or ending character...

But the 2nd RX PIC receives perfectly. It's the 1st TX PIC that gives a framing error. And yet the 2nd RX gives an ACK using the HSEROUT structure, and it can DISABLE transmitter just fine.

I just don't get why PIC #1 cannot TXSTA.5 = 0, but PIC #2 can.

(I am going to keep that code on file, cause I'm sure it's going to be useful one day)


EDIT: I'm starting to think maybe I'm too dense to see the forest...
