    16 Bit LCD programming

    You can use 4bit or 8bit addressing, 4 bit saves on I/O. See http://www.winpicprog.co.uk/pic_tutorial.htm Somewhere someone on another site has converted Nigels code to C also. M.

    Variable capacitor

    The other way is to make the inductor variable, move the core through the coil for tuning and use a fixed cap. Older car radios used this method, btw. M.

    Power supply

    Those power supplies take either N.A. 240v and ground ( L1-L2 & No neutral) or L1 and N 120v and ground. They are labeled L & N as some countries use a 240v and neutral, unlike N.A. where the 240v is a 120-0-120 1 phase centre tapped supply and the CT is neutral. They generally have a selector...
