Hello Pat,
This is pretty easy to do with the right HW. Most of the mobile phones
don't support plain text SMSs, so You have to code them in the correct
way. What I use is GSM gateway (nokia, telular, etc...) and I send AT
commands over serial connection. Here is a pseudo code for You (You need
to write some on Your own and to ask for help...):
# connect to serial port (or USB)
set_port_parameters();
# send AT commands
write_to_serial("Correct AT for Your device");
wait_for_result();
write_to_serial("Some more commands");
wait_for_result();
Best Regards,
Marko
