Thanks to all giving advice on running PIC *overspeed* @ 11.0592MHz.

For those interested, what I'm thinking of doing is seting up the PIC as
a programmable oscillator to drive an IR diode for remote control. By going
to 10+ MHz, a tight loop (i.e. pin on, nop, pin off, jump) oscillates at
500Khz, inserting
delays will allow it to be *tuned* to other frequencies such as standard
remote
control @ 38KHz. An external interrupt on B0 would be used to receive
serial
data to transmit. It would be nice to also have a variable frequency
receiver, but
I think this is maybe a bit too hard. The choice for using a PIC rather
than a simple
555 based circuit is space (ie 1 chip+res+diode) and the other is software
control.
