Step 3Schematic- build on a breadboard
If it does nothing you can try again.
Of course you won't know if it's working yet.
Prepare your antenna. Unroll up to 3 meters or 10 feet of wire.
Wrap it around an umbrella like E.T. phones home.
Notice that a transistor-looking 78L05 has it's pins reversed compared to a bigger 7805
and also that the upper right corner of the PIC12C508 is negative ground,
not positive Vcc like on many chips.
My browser is putting an icon on top of the antenna so if that's what you see then
the third wire used on the PIC that goes away from the circuit is the antenna wire.
