Hi Dan, hi Simon,

I think, it's a pretty nice idea to remove th optionOnOff and replace it
by bool.

<history>
In former times, the variables in the config struct had very different
names - not containing "enable". Therefore optionOnOff was used to make
absolutely clear (in user space), wheter something was switched on, or off.
Now the variable have nice names, so bool is fine, even better now :-)
</history>

I would suggest not to split the amp-functions but to rename them, to
also contain an enable:
rf69_set_amp_X_enable()

To avoid misunderstandings maybe it is better to remove the enable from
enable_address_filtering, since here we can't go with bool.

Thanks a lot for the ideas and improvements :-)

Marcus
