Welcome Paul,

I agree with you that this is by far the best µcontroller forum I've found. You will find the people here helpful.

I'm guessing that English is not your first language. If it is, I apologize. If it isn't, don't worry. No one here will give you grief for poor language skills. On the other hand, they will give you 5 kinds of grief if you use "u" for "you" and/or "r" for "are" and/or "or" (I dare you to try and read that one out loud).

Again, welcome. I and most here will be pleased to count you among our friends.
