RF24 Only Works Once

[J-M-L]

@groundFungus

Here is my "usual suspects" for rf24 radio problems. Some have already been covered

well, OP did some homework on this before posting here. Here is what he said:

@howardinventor

I used some Ralf Bacon example code, this generates a random number from 0 to 254 and transmits it. The receiver takes that value, increments it by 1 and passes it back. The serial port on the transmitter shows the incremented number. This works solidly and proves my wiring; firm foundations.

so we could assume that the powering and wiring of the rf24 is OK as his setup code is largely coming from Ralf Bacon example code

would be good to hear if the system shows the same issue if the Arduino is powered continuously and when transmission is triggered by a momentary switch. (code offered in #8 to test)
