...back to the breadboard. I've rebuilt the receiver on the breadboard and all appears well. Why the circuit never worked (properly) on stripboard is a mystery, but it confirms that we weren't doing anything very wrong - and that the components are working.
One of the things Andy wanted to work was a flashing LED to show that the device was in fact receiving data. This was lacking from the original design and so never made it to the stripboard version. Now that we are back on the breadboard I've had a chance to try a couple of things, the result of which is... a flashing LED when data is received.
With both circuits fully working, we need to make an effort to get these into their 'production' state. In the meantime we are waiting for our camera to be returned as it died shortly after arriving and before we could even load the new firmware - let alone test it.
