+    rf24ping85.ino by tong67 ( https://github.com/tong67 )
+    This is an example of how to use the RF24 class to communicate with ATtiny85 and other node.
+    Write this sketch to an ATtiny85. It will act like the 'transmit' mode of GettingStarted.ino
+    Write GettingStarted.ino sketch to UNO (or other board or RPi) and put the node in 'receiver' mode.
+    The ATtiny85 will transmit a counting number every second starting from 1.
+    The ATtiny85 uses the tiny-core by CodingBadly (https://code.google.com/p/arduino-tiny/)
+    When direct use of 3v3 does not work (UNO boards have bad 3v3 line) use 5v with LED (1.8V ~ 2.2V drop)
+    For low power consumption solutions floating pins (SCK and MOSI) should be pulled high or low with eg. 10K

+    ATtiny25/45/85 Pin map with CE_PIN 3 and CSN_PIN 3 => PB3 and PB4 are free to use for application
+    Circuit idea from http://nerdralph.blogspot.ca/2014/01/nrf24l01-control-with-3-attiny85-pins.html
+    Original RC combination was 1K/100nF. 22K/10nF combination worked better.
+	For best settletime delay value in RF24::csn() the timingSearch3pin.ino scatch can be used.
+    This configuration is enabled when CE_PIN and CSN_PIN are equal, e.g. both 3
+    Because CE is always high the power consumption is higher than for 5 pins solution
+                                                                                            ^^
