Ok folks, it's time to access the hive mind.

I have a personal project that uses multiple PICS's and is going to use the
NRF24L01 for its internal communication. The "master node" uses a PIC24 and
handles communication from an ESP board and formulates a packet to send to
the slave nodes. I have the network socket working well enough to trigger
the breakpoints I'd expect, as well as outputting debug data. The issue is
with sending the data through the NRF pipe.

I have a state machine that is driven by the SPI interrupt that sends the
various initialization commands that I have found scattered all over the
internet to the nrf chip. The state machine itself seems to work, as far as
it progresses though the various states to the READY state. I have no clue
as to whether the NRF is getting the commands. I then provide the state
machine a packet to send, and it does not appear to do anything. At the
moment I am working without a configured receiver and I would have expected
the NRF to have asserted the maximum retry interrupt at the very least, but
this does not seem to happen.

I don't know how to even start debugging this and any clues would be most
useful. I have been poking at it on and off for many months, and am even
currently thinking of swapping this idea out for a set of ESP devices and
talking directly to each slave node, although that would require some
serious redesign work.

Again, any ideas/thoughts on how to even start would be super helpful

Thanks
