General operation:
After power is applied, the device will begin to send the idstring via morse code as FM modulated tones. After the idstring, a programmable number of beeps ( or tones) are transmitted before starting again with the idstring.
Prior to each beep, the serial interface is checked for inbound commands
Command mode will be entered when you press the '!' key.
Command Mode:
The following commands are available to control the radio beacon:

Notes:
* Beep timings are approximate due to the delay when changing radio trasmit mode
The 'mspeed' parameter controls the timing of the morse code characters (in milliseconds)
