+#
+# Author  : Gaston Gonzalez
+# Date    : 16 July 2026
+# Purpose : Wrapper script for starting Mercury with PnP support
+#
+# Preconditions:
+# 1. Supported radio and audio interface are connected and properly detected
+#
+# Postconditions:
+# 1. Mercury started with sane defaults
+#
+# Notes:
+#
+# Mercury supports many modulation types and configuration options. To
+# keep usage simple, only three modulation settings have been configured
+# that map to a combination of reliability and speed for most general
+# purpose applications.
