Please let me know if the PICSTART+ works on the 16C711. I have somebody
that wants to buy my PICSTART 16B & 16C units. I'm looking at several
different companies for a replacement. I may just stay with Microchip
and get the Plus model. Thanks to Jim and Kurt for their comments also.
I would have already tried the settings for the 16c622 but I programmed
all the OTP parts and shipped them out.
