rf22_specan.pde

Simple spectrum analyser using the RSSI measurements of the RF22 (see Sample output showing a plot from 395.0MHz to 396.0MHz of a signal generator at 395.5MHz amplitude modulated at 100% 1kHz)

// rf22_specan
// A simple spectrum analyser for the RF22
// Uses the RSSI measurement to plot signal strength
// against frequency
// Specify the start and and requencies and the step size below.
// The output is suitable for a VT100 terminal emulator
// Note the baud rate is set to 115200 for better performance,
// but you can change this to suit your needs
//
// TO DO: add some interactivity
