- I did add Timer_0_Int_Handler(); to user_routines_fast.c in the appropriate spot in InterruptHandlerLow().

I'm not available tonight, but I'll e-mail you the code. What really puzzles me is why the controller goes into an infinate loop. Does anyone know if the beacon and the tracker share an interrupt or a input or something, and maybe thats causing a conflict? I changed the tracker PWMs to 3 and 4, so its not that... the beacon uses timer0 while the tracker uses timer1... I don't believe the beacon uses interrupts 3, 4, 5, or 6... I'm clueless.
They don't conflict for timers or interrupts.
I duplicated what you did over my lunch hour, but I won't be able to test it until I get to the school tonight. If it works I'll send it to you.
