(This is a resend: although I've had no error messages, I haven't seen this appear on the list yet, after 2 days...) Off topic again, sorry, but I'm in parts search mode and I know there's a lot of expertise and experience in electronics (not just PICs) on this list: I'm looking for a good crystal driven counter/timer in a small package that I could use to for two things: externally clocking a uart (MAX3100, probably), and also simultaneously clocking serial data out of the uart and out of some A/D converters. I'm trying to avoid two crystals on the board (the uart can be directly crystal driven, but has no baud rate out pin). Newbie alert: I know virtually nothing about counter/timers yet, so I'm also seeking an education. Private email encouraged. Dave Johnson
