You did not tell us that either :-) In general, I think it's much easier to debug USART code if you use some *external* device (such as a terminal emulator on a PC, or a RS232 line-listner). Are you sure you get anything at all on the line connecting Tx and Rx ? Have you checked with an o-scope ? The blinking LED just says that your code *thinks* that it is sending something...
