Thanks Bob, and John

1.  I had a silly typing error in my code that simply stopped the 
real AVR from working:
TCCR1B |= (0<<CS12) | (1<CS11) | (0<CS10);  // Missing '<' !!!!

2.  The AVR debugger is completely spurious in emulating this 
function.  When I tried to investigate the issue on the debugger I 
was totally lead astray. (I need a Dragon! :-)

3.  Combination of 1. and 2. had me absolutely baffled.  

Thanks again and apologies to the group for wasting your time with my 
silly mistakes.

Happy Easter to all!

Andrew

PS Bob, I want to do servo control, so I set ICR1 to ~40,000 to give 
me the 55Hz pulse repeat, then change OCR1A and OCR1B for the channel 
width.  I only need 2 channels, so 16bit PWM on Timer 1 is the easy 
way...
