They came from Oatley too but are not the TX434/RX434 (which are not bi-directional) and were slightly more expensive at NZ$9 each Although I've not looked into in depth yet, I would imagine error checking would be simpler with a bi-directional link, as you can send checksum/data verification from either/both ends -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
