For lbolly

Most transmitters and receivers run all the time when turned on.  The
transmitter will modulate a signal when a signal is applied to its input pin,
otherwise only the carrier is being generated.

The first thing you have to do is disable one transmitter when its associated
receiver is receiving signals.  The receiver associated with the sending
transsmitter will also have to be disabled, other wise it will get spurious
data from its own transmitter.

This is easily accomplished by tying the ground sie of the transmitter power
to the collector of a 2N2222.  When the transistor is low, i.e., its base
low, the transsmitter if off.  By using one of your spare pins to take the
base high, the transistor will turn on, the collector will go to exxentially
ground and the transmitter will be active.  Same for the receiver.

That should be your first step.

I presume the data is sent by the transmitter via serout2, then received by
the receiver via serin2 using "str serstring\# of bytes" to receive and store
the data.  In case you don't know, which you probably do,  serstring must be
declared as:

serstring var byte(#of bytes)
