invested $80 in a basic stamp logic analyzer, (wonderful device for the price, 16 inputs, 2Ms/sec, asynch serial, i2c and spi protocol analyzers...), and actually got to see the signal coming out of the radio. imagine my delight when it turned out to be pretty much as i guessed it would be. why, my little heart was all aflutter.

they're killing me at work right now, but i'll have some time off at thanksgiving and figure i'll try to replace the brain on my squarebot with my board of education. even with that poky little thing i figure i should be able to decode the signal, output two channels of pwm and read the bumper switches, with maybe a little time left over to flash an led.

if that works, i'll try it with a atmega8.
