Still looking for a start
« on: December 02, 2009, »
I am still looking to get any controler to start this year. I got pcb but mouser is out of parts for the boards. So if anyone has an old board to sell with dongle, it would be great. Fred

PM me on which parts you are missing.  Between RJ and the other members we should be able to find parts.

Feel lucky..  I think I might know how to get parts...  BUT no PCB.  I'm DYING to get started, although I KNOW I won't get it ready in time for this year...  I could have the controller ready for Halloween and Christmas next year!

Gentlemen,
I have one Express version 3 PCB and one dongle PCB that I could spare.  Don't have any parts (with the exception of the dongle CAT 5 connector).  However, between Mouser, Digikey and Allied Electronics I have not had any problems getting the parts I needed.

I will take $15 (plus shipping) for both PCBs and the connector.  If anyone is interested, let me know.  frd1419 gets first shot since this is his post.

Thanks Jay for the offer, but I already have the boards from RJ. I will look at the other places you mentioned fro the parts mouser has on back order.   Fred Thanks to all who responded.



Update : With a little web searching I am able to get all the parts. Now time will be my only enemy!   22 days and counting! :o

Just my two cents,  you might want to get a PIC programmer, the PICS are not programmed. there are users that can program the PICs for you, but the time to mail them out and having them mail back to you will take a week of your time.  

Just a suggestion.
