Great, Ya i'm not the best at building but i enjoy doing it, 
unfortunatly I am not good at using IC's, is it best to make my own 
Printed board? anyways, can't wait to get it working, mabey it will be 
used in my physics class.... haha... Finishing the RX will be fun, gonna 
try to get that done first...
