To start, don't go under MicroChip PICKIT 2. it's actually listed ~40 USD$

IT'S WORKING. Don't waste your time to build your own JDM, PicAll and all other freebies one... they simply don't worth AND you can't trust them..

Go go go, PICKIT 2... nice start point.

MicroChipDirect or any good electronic supplier will have them.
