An analog line-out audio signal will be produced at GPIO-pin 'GP0'. You can observe it by using a scope, listen to it by using an audio amp, or connect it to any RF transceiver to send it on the air (ham radio license required).
Basically, this is the data/signal flow:

## Hardware
We just need a simple low-pass filter to extract the AFSK-signal from the PWM signal. Just connect GPIO-pin 'GP0' to a 1k resistor and the latter to a 47 nF cap.
The junction between the resistor and the cap is our signal output.

## Build the application
```

(cd into the cloned dir)
cmake -S . -B build
cmake --build build

## Run the application
```
cd build

The GPIO-pin 'GP0' is the line-out for the analog AFSK-signal. You can observe it by using a scope, listen to it by using an audio amp, or connect it to an HT to bring it on the air (ham radio license required).

## TODO (Aug 2021)
- [x] Thorough evaluation
- [x] Send the APRS message on the console (USB or UART) rather than hard-coding
- [x] Code documentation
- [x] Show how to connect to a Baofeng HT
- [x] PTT control for HTs
- [x] Scope screenshots
- [x] Schematic & Fritzings
