HamShield/examples/Morse/Morse.ino

/* Hamshield
 * Example: Morse Code Transceiver
 * 
 * Serial to Morse transceiver. Sends characters from the Serial
 * port over the air, and vice versa.
 * Connect the HamShield to your Arduino. Screw the antenna 
 * into the HamShield RF jack. Connect the Arduino to wall 
 * power and then to your computer via USB. After uploading 
 * this program to your Arduino, open the Serial Monitor to 
 * monitor the status of the beacon. To test, set a HandyTalkie 
 * to 438MHz. You should hear the message " CALLSIGN HAMSHIELD" 
 * in morse code.
 * 
 * 
 * Note: only upper case letters, numbers, and a few symbols
 * are supported.
 * Supported symbols: &/+(=:?";@`-._),!$
 * 
 * If you're having trouble accurately decoding, you may want to
 * tweak the min/max . and - times. You can also uncomment
 * the Serial.print debug statements that can tell you when tones
 * are being detected, how long they're detected for, and whether
 * the tones are decoded as a . or -.
 *
