MSP430 and CC110L communication

Hi, I am new to the forum, and hope I am doing this right.  If this question is in the wrong spot please let me know. 

 

I have two MSP430G2 launchpads and a CC110L AIR module booster pack.  My goal is to make a simple pushbutton toggle setup.  (ie push the button on one board, and toggle a GPIO on the other board.)  Eventually, I plan to turn this into a key fob with custom PCBs.  Low power consumption would be really good too.  I thought this would be a relatively easy project, but I am stuck.  I can't get the boards to communicate at all. 

 

I got the settings by choosing from the SMARTRF studio.  I planned to use an MSP430g2553 with USCI through the UCB0 interface as the SPI communication.  However, I keep getting hang-ups in different parts of the code, with some TXFIFO_UNDERFLOWS sometimes, and other times just a hang-up.  Currently, I didn't modify any of the boards and am using their built in connections.  I am not sure what anyone would want, but if someone would have a suggestion or example I would be very grateful.  Let me know if you would like anymore information from me.  I haven't even tried using a LPM yet and am already stuck.  I have spent hours reading the datasheets and just come away more confused every time.

 

The Launchpad also comes with an MSP430g2452 if the USI interface would be a better option than the USCI, but when I was doing research it seemed like the 2553 with the USCI was more popular.
