So what? he doesnt want to do spectral analysis, he wants the fundamental, which is the time between zero crossings. If you know 'about' the freq to expect, you can amplify and low pass the string to get rid of a lot of the harmonics. I always help the guitar tuner out by turning

Ought to work just fine. If they are using the same clock, then if the baud rates are also set to be the same, the baud rates WILL be the same. This should be as close to zero-error async serial as you can get. You can also use any arbitrary baud rate for the micro-micro link as
