Well, yes.

However, without seeing your setup I can't provide any practical comments. It's
been my experience that PIC's are extremely easy to clock. I've used function
generators through a meter's worth of coax to frequencies of 20Mhz. I've also
used RC circuits where the R is a potentiometer (this is really a cool way to
build a variable frequency device, btw - write isochronous code and get the
variation in the clock).

What are the discrepancies in the uchip docs (with regards to the clock).
