example of switching between FSK and LoRa modem mode.
/*
LoRaLib Transmit Example
This example transmits LoRa packets with one second delays
between them. Each packet contains up to 256 bytes
of data, in the form of:
- Arduino String
- null-terminated char array (C-string)
- arbitrary binary data (byte array)
For more detailed information, see the LoRaLib Wiki
https://github.com/jgromes/LoRaLib/wiki
-- 14/07/2018
-- Richard Bamford - Added switching to FSK modem mode to transmit the same data.
