Paul/Doc,  I googled "what is Picaxe" and found  a basic step by step
for using the picaxe system.   At the bottom of the page was a link for
more info on getting started with the picaxe system where they offer
starter packs which include  too much to list here.  Question is,  do
you recommend buying (very cheap) one of the starter packs and what
else?   If you want to look at what I am referring to the URL
is http://www.rev-ed.co.uk/picaxe/stepbystep.htm    Thanks,  Jerry

You need one mounted on a PC board with at least one LED on one
of the output pins so you can tell if your program is working.
You will will also need a USB to RS232 cable and a battery box
that will hold three 1.5 volt AA batteries to power it..

I suggest the AXE 001 but people sell that in the states.
