Hi. Im new here, so i hope im doing the right thing posting here.
Im writting because im having problems with my basicstamp hw board.
I am trying to get it to control speed controlers that were previously controled by a radio remote control. I analyzed what type of signal was coming from the remote's receiver, and i found it was just a pulse. So i tryed to program my board to PULSOUT 750,pause 20. It wasnt working so I analyzed the signal that those two lines would give me in the scope, and the signal coming out was not a pulse at all. It looked like series of periods of a y=tan x but separated by 20ms. Please, someone, let me know what am i doing wrong! Is my board bad?
Thank you so much.

·· Try making the port pin a LOW output before sending the PULSOUT.
