在Arduino RadioHead中使用带有const char *的Serial.read（）

I'm trying to send text over the serial monitor using RadioHead ASK. Text input from the serial monitor is not sent to the receiver. I have read up on C++ theory with char arrays and pointers... it's not computing in my head :). How can *msg exist without first declaring char msg? Please see the sample below. It would be great if you could explain the theory with any sample solution. Thank you for your help!I'm trying to send text over the serial monitor
