don’t give up just yet

Chris, please reconsider returning the piece of junk to Sparkfun (or selling it on e-bay). Maybe in the next few months or so some wise (ass) people come along in search of info on this component. LMR is getting more and more google attention every week. Just make sure the google users find this node when searching for “serlcd picaxe”.

Some day some person might come along, see our problem and our efforts and come up with an even smarter idea. one that works.

Hey clever person, if you’re reading this: please post your smart idea here!
