TWeiss33:
Will I need to be using all of these pins listed above if i wish to only receive data from a transmission source? Thanks for the help, I do not have the Attiny with me yet but i have been able to walk through the setup a bit.
Yes.
a) You have to send commands to the chip and check status bits no matter what you're doing.
b) Why would you want a Nrf24L01 connected to a Tiny85? There's no pins left for any sort of sensors or indicators. Where does the data you're transmitting come from? What can you do with it if you've go no pins left?
By the time you've connected all those extras diodes and capacitors to control the CS pin, what did you gain? You have no I/O pins left and it won't be smaller/simpler/lower power than using a Pro Mini.
