How does one clear the oSerialPort's buffer other than reading it's
value propery? Does sending data clear the "receive" buffer? Does
setting the operate property to cvFalse clear the buffer?

Thanks

Just reading it is how I've done it.

If you read the PIC data sheet, that is the only way to flush the buffer
is by reading it. So, do four reads after a reset and you're done.
