Dear "blue eagle" Brian,

My problem comes from understanding what exactly you are doing and 
what you want to acheive: Does the text above mean that you use an 
external clock source (crystal, resonator, STK500 clock circuitry) 
and try to use the AVR fuses to change the frequency? Or do you use 
the AVR internal RC clock generator and program it for different 
frequencies (then please tell me how you get it to 16MHz!)?

Maybe you stop providing only small puzzle pieces of info and start 
this thread all over again by describing what you want to do, what 
you tried so far and how it failed?

Nobody wants to shoot you (- or, well, now that you mention... ;-)), 
but sometimes people (not only you) make it rather difficult to 
understand their problem in order to be able to provide some help.
