Just keep in mind those overclocked chips are not guaranteed by µChip ... that's the only point to care with when professionnal use !!! May be we also might point out that , these days, "Non Rohs" devices are sold at a really fair price ...

    I've always wanted to apply 'standard' PC overclocking techniques to a PIC, just to see what it would do...

    Well actually, I was looking on the net for some surface mount Leyden Jars, but I don't think Pieter van Musschenbroek came out with an SMD version...

    He He He, Leydan jars! I almost went there too. Just keep tapping on that coherner and those radio waves will get detected, and I'll adjust the spark gap . . . Hey can you spare an extra cat whisker?

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
