Oh, no, I meant I couldn't find the other gentleman's PCB files,
Hans, the ones he said he had for free download.

At this point I think I'd rather just pay for a PCB already made,

Every once in a while someone gets on the PIC Basic list and wants
(demands) that everyone else do there work for them. One guy, when
told to look around the internet for examples, even had the nerve
to say he didn't have time to search for himself! Yow.
