Actually, what I said was that usually, trying to built a programmer wasn't worth the effort and frustration, and that a PICkit 2 would probably be cheaper in the long run. Many people who try and build these give up in frustration.
After bread-boarding your programmer and 5 pages of help from forum members, you still don't have anything that works. And a lot of people have given up their time to try and help.
If your goal is to spend time debugging a programmer, more power to you. IF your goal is to actually work with PICs and program them, you're not making much progress.
I shared with you my experience that these programmers are a pain in the butt. You said I didn't know what I'm talking about. Remember, nobody here OWES you any help and assistance. You might benefit from good advice or not.
