OK, so then you are getting, some data. That's good. Does the receiver still fail to boot sometimes? If so, have you swapped the Tx/Rx modules to see if they both react that way? (SURE Electronics ) Seem like pretty easy to deal with vendors. Just in case there is hardware problems. If all of the above is TRUE, then I think you will need to reevaluate how you are sending data. You may need to add some character pacing scheme and or send data X # of times to insure reception.
Are you using Tony's code exactly as published here? If not may we see what you ARE using?
EDIT: I just loaded Tony's code . . . the half that he posted into MCS for examination . . . I hope you ARE using more than that, on account of there is no place in this where data gets loaded or stored . . . so let us see your code, please.
