Good tip, will try that

btw, I dug out the paperwork last night. I found the reason
why I'd made a blue with the port settings when reading
the busy flag. It all goes back years to a Motorola TP for the
HC11 which said that it is necessary to change the data
direction for the only the D7 port pin. This was the reference
for my first LCD code and it worked, so that's the way it
stayed. As of yesterday I humbly know better
