    2. What is your 'master plan'? Do you intend to transfer data between 2 PICs wirelessly? Do you intend to just control a couple of LEDs wirelessly? What?
    I want to transfer data to about 200feet between two pics.

    Ok, still a lot of information missing. Is the 16F88 your transmitter or receiver PIC? You posted what I assume is the 'transmitter' code, what about the receiver hardware and/or code...in fact, don't worry about the code for right now. We're going to make sure your hardware is hooked up right.
    (P.S. I'm only going to be here for the next 1/2 hour, until 10pm CST)


    And another thing, you are using a software based serial solution, also called 'bit-banging'. By the time your serout is done, all the data is transmitted. It's not buffered anywhere. It's not done in hardware. It's like trying to use 2 telephones to talk to yourself in different rooms. You talk into one phone, run to the other room and wait for your voice to come out. It isn't going to happen. Serin doesn't have anything to do but wait for nothing. Not going to work....
