Hi Wendall,

First off, I am not using this. Someone who works with me here at Cornell
is using it in a research project, and he is new to PICs. He already has
some of them.

What ICSP protocol does it use, the same one as the 16F84 and the mid-range
PICs? It's funny, because I could have sworn that the 17C42 and the rest of
the 17Cxx and 17Cxxx series needed to be parallel programed, which was why
you couldn't use Tait-style programmers to program them, or can you?

Thanks,

Sean
