After modifying the Raspbery PI nRF24L01 shields I built a single page single button Universal Windows Platforms(UWP) test harness (using the techfooninja RF24 library) to check everything was working as expected.
I used a couple of Netduinos and Raspbery PI devices to as test clients.
public sealed partial class MainPage : Page
{
private const byte ChipEnablePin = 25;
private const byte ChipSelectPin = 0;
private const byte InterruptPin = 17;
private const byte Channel = 10;
private RF24 radio;
public MainPage()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
this.radio = new RF24();
this.radio.OnDataReceived += this.Radio_OnDataReceived;
this.radio.OnTransmitFailed += this.Radio_OnTransmitFailed;
this.radio.OnTransmitSuccess += this.Radio_OnTransmitSuccess;
this.radio.Initialize(ChipEnablePin, ChipSelectPin, InterruptPin);
this.radio.Address = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("Base1");
this.radio.Channel = Channel;
this.radio.PowerLevel = PowerLevel.Low;
this.radio.DataRate = DataRate.DR250Kbps;
this.radio.IsEnabled = true;
Debug.WriteLine("Address: " + Encoding.UTF8.GetString(this.radio.Address));
Debug.WriteLine("Channel: " + this.radio.Channel);
Debug.WriteLine("DataRate: " + this.radio.DataRate);
Debug.WriteLine("PA: " + this.radio.PowerLevel);
Debug.WriteLine("IsAutoAcknowledge: " + this.radio.IsAutoAcknowledge);
Debug.WriteLine("IsDynamicAcknowledge: " + this.radio.IsDynamicAcknowledge);
Debug.WriteLine("IsDynamicPayload: " + this.radio.IsDynamicPayload);
Debug.WriteLine("IsEnabled: " + this.radio.IsEnabled);
Debug.WriteLine("IsInitialized: " + this.radio.IsInitialized);
Debug.WriteLine("IsPowered: " + this.radio.IsPowered);
}
private void Radio_OnDataReceived(byte[] data)
{
string dataUTF8 = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(data);
Debug.WriteLine(string.Format("Received: {0}", dataUTF8));
}
private void buttonSend_Click(object sender, Windows.UI.Xaml.RoutedEventArgs e)
{
this.radio.SendTo(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("Duino"), Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(DateTime.UtcNow.ToString("yy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss"))) ;
}
private void Radio_OnTransmitSuccess()
{
Debug.WriteLine("Radio_OnTransmitSuccess");
}
private void Radio_OnTransmitFailed()
{
Debug.WriteLine("Radio_OnTransmitFailed");
}
}

The Raspberry PI could reliably receive and transmit messages.
