Hi Steve, my thought at this stage is to use you as a guinea pig. I'm guessing ZL is (in postal terms) about as far (and as expensive) as you can get from my local post office. So it will be useful to know if the PO let it go as a letter (no customs deceleration etc.). The next point (not unrelated) is that the board and parts are not useful without the PIC. I thought what I'd do is program up a couple I have on hand and get them in the post to you. That way, you should have them when your ready to build. The only downside I can see is that with so many people building these TICs, I wouldn't be surprised if there are some rapid changes to the code. Given the price of the PICs, I guess there is no real problem having a spare set that can be rotated.
If your happy with this idea, send me your address and I'll load the current code and get them on their way. 73 ian > Date: Sun, 4 Jul 2010 19:56:35 +1200 > From: Steve Rooke <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [time-nuts] Pic programing for the PICTIC II > To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement > <[email protected]> > Message-ID: > <[email protected]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 > > Ian, > > On 4 July 2010 08:18, gonzo . <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Hi Group, > > in an effort to pool resources, I'm entering into a co-op arrangement with > > another list member. > > > > I'm happy to either order the PICs and supply them programmed (cost price > > plus postage) or, if you already have a PIC and want to post it to me, I'll > > program it and return it in a SSAE for no cost. > > > > I'm in the UK, so postage rates and delivery times probably limit how far > > it it practical for me to cover. > > > > Steve, as a VK living in GW, I'm happy to post to ZL. > > That is a very kind offer, thanks.
