Can you take over Timer0 if your aren't using PWMs 13 through 16? It's in last year's documentation, but we didn't see it in this year's.

Thanks in advance.
On the 8722 we have timers 0-3 available with the 10MHz internal (an external oscillator is not needed).
Using Timer0 holds for this year as well. You need to use FRC_alltimers.lib rather than FRC_library.lib in your project just like last year.
