arduino serial HELP ME
<p>I am trying to get an LED to light up when a certain message comes through on the serial port but nothing is working! <strong>please help me!!</strong></p>

<pre><code>int awsState = "AWS:0";   // for incoming serial data

 void setup() {
    Serial.begin(9600);   
    pinMode(13, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {

    // send data only when you receive data:
    if (Serial.available() &gt; 0) {
            // read the incoming byte:
            awsState = Serial.read();

            // say what you got:
            Serial.print(incomingByte);
            Serial.println("Good");
            if (awsState == "AWS:1"){

              digitalWrite(13, HIGH);
            }
    else if (awsState == "AWS:0"){
      digitalWrite(13, LOW);
    }
    }

}
