    Greetings, all. Back to dabbling a little on the breadboard. I am considering a small "universal remote" project that could send the power on-off code for various common brands. I can find lots of Pronto codes online that give the hex timing for IR pulses (at least, I think that is what they...

For both readadc and readadc10 the data varies widely, by a range of 15 or more in debug on the readadc command (i.e. 8-bit...
