Try this:
print('Receiving...',out)
If you want to convert the bytes you read from the serial port into a
string, you need to decode they bytes (and you have to specify what
encoding to use):
print('Receiving...' + out.decode('ascii'))
If you google 'Python 3 bytes strings' you should find a bunch of info:
