Also, you should assign a higher version number (1.00tav? 0.98tav?) It certainly is a full step above and beyond the base. 0.86 might mislead someone to think that flashing your code would be...

The OR was probably (stupidly) ORing 0x00 to each of the 3 high bytes as well. I've been using unions, as below, to eliminate some of that nonsense. With the add-256 method, the compiler knew the...
