I've been trying to obtain rf wireless communication to my pic projects for awhile now... recently I managed to get my pc's serial port to transmit out a TWS transmitter module to the RWS reciever at N2400 baud (yay) i can "trigger" my reciever address "if" statement and get to the underlying functions (i'm hoping these parts of the program can talk to the other pic's and update variables on those which in turn provide the desired functionality. This is a rc robot/car

the recadd byte is next byte out after the "254" qualifier

I then have a variable "bitvalue" ' basically the 0-255 I would like to send to the different PIC's which control various features (motor direction, HPWM motor speed control, various lights, possibly a rototating "platter" for my camera to sit on)

but enough about the PC > PIC transmission... my problem is the opposite, the PIC > PC transmission and recipt.

The problem is my vb program gets garbled data

it looks like this: ûo—ÿû[¸

maybe somebody could post a schematic for connecting both a RWS /TWS to both pic and pc so i know i have my connections right. (especially resistor values)

Thanks
