    Yes! If I can count the pulse, then I can calculate the frequency using PBP
    (and would not need a frequency-to-voltage converter to convert to analog).
    In other words, how do I recognize a pulse from a reed switch directly and may I link the reed switch directly to a pin of my PIC, thus skipping the step of converting the output of the reed switch to a 0-5VDC signal?
