How to hack a doorbell and connect it to Twitter - Part 3: Using an Arduino to send a wireless RF signal

I use the following sketch to test if the doorbell speaker reacts on the signal I found. It turned out that it works better when I adjusted the timings a little bit. That's why you won't find 520 microseconds, but 417 microseconds in line 29 of the code.

   Connect data pin of RF sender to digital pin 3 of the Arduino.
   Connect push button to digital pin 2 of the Arduino.

  The signal exists of 24 bits.
  1 means: long  ON followed by short OFF
  0 means: short ON followed by long  OFF
