Arduino RF Wireless Message Display

As I am building the RF wireless power socket for home automation, I need a stand along tool to display any wireless received message. During the lab, I use Arduino serial monitor to monitor the message received once a second, error always happens at different time point as following screen shot shows. After disconnecting the Arduino Uno from PC to monitor message received by using LCD keypad shield as a stand along system, the error condition gone.
The RF wireless message display can be used to display the time on the NTP synchronized RTC clock (my projects during Aug 2013), so no additional time adjustment at display side is needed.

Parts Used

1. Arduino Uno R3
2. cheaphousetek LCD Keypad Shield
3. RF Receiver (described in Arduino Cookbook 14.1)

Connection

1. Stack LCD Key Keypad Upon Arduino Uno R3
2. RF Receiver Data Pin - Arduino Uno D11
3. RF Receiver Vcc - Arduino Uno 5V
4. RF Receiver Gnd - Arduino Uno Gnd

The sketch runs correctly with output to LCD shield for 247,610 times.
