Hi all,
I bought a little Elechouse FM transmitter (http://www.elechouse.com/elechouse/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=168_170&products_id=2206) and got it working without too much drama on my Arduino Uno. I'm trying to get it to work on my trinket, to make a miniature transmitter for my car.
The trouble is that when I try and compile the code it always comes up with the message 'serial was not declared in this scope', despite my including the SoftwareSerial.h library. I've posted the code below. Can anyone tell me if I'm doing anything stupid?
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
/**

@brief example of FMRX_MODULE
For this demo, input command format like &xxxx to set select band,
(eg:if you want to set FM 95.6MHz,then input &0956 and send).
