/* Hamshield * Example: Fox Hunt * Plays a one minute tone at 10-13 minute intervals. Script * will check to see if the channel is clear before it will * transmit. * 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. To test, set a HandyTalkie * to 438MHz. You should hear a one-minute tone every 10-13 minutes. */ #include #define PWM_PIN 3 #define RESET_PIN A3 #define SWITCH_PIN 2 HamShield radio; void setup() { // NOTE: if not using PWM out, it should be held low to avoid tx noise pinMode(PWM_PIN, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(PWM_PIN, LOW); // prep the switch pinMode(SWITCH_PIN, INPUT_PULLUP); // set up the reset control pin pinMode(RESET_PIN, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(RESET_PIN, HIGH); Serial.begin(9600); Serial.println("If the sketch freezes at radio status, there is something wrong with power or the shield"); Serial.print("Radio status: "); int result = radio.testConnection(); Serial.println(result,DEC); Serial.println("Setting radio to its defaults.."); radio.initialize(); } void loop() { radio.setModeReceive(); radio.setSQLoThresh(0); radio.setSQOn(); radio.setVolume1(0xF); radio.setVolume2(0xF); delay(1000); Serial.println("Changing frequency to 446.000 and waiting 10 seconds.
