* A simple example of sending data from 1 nRF24L01 transceiver to another
* with manually transmitted (non-automatic) Acknowledgement (ACK) payloads.
* This example still uses ACK packets, but they have no payloads. Instead the
* acknowledging response is sent with `write()`. This tactic allows for more
* updated acknowledgement payload data, where actual ACK payloads' data are
* outdated by 1 transmission because they have to loaded before receiving a
* transmission.

*
* A simple example of sending data from as many as 6 nRF24L01 transceivers to
* 1 receiving transceiver. This technique is trademarked by
* Nordic Semiconductors as "MultiCeiver".
*
* This example was written to be used on up to 6 devices acting as TX nodes &
* only 1 device acting as the RX node (that's a maximum of 7 devices).
