Artifex, Thanks for the concise & understandable explanation. But (in this one area) I don't fully agree that . "RF systems aren't able to listen to the transmit channel at the same time as they are transmitting" ..... In my past life, I maintained a number of fixed Ground "Air Navigational Aid" systems. In these systems, it is absolutely essential that a great number of transmitted signal parameters be continually monitored. And, of course, this requires a separate monitor antenna, or some other type of RF "pickup" ... since the main antenna is switched to the transmitting device. I would assume that, in cases where you are also attempting to intercept an offending RF carrier, it may be necessary to locate the monitoring antenna at a reasonable distance from you own transmitting antenna... And that you'd be looking for a substantial change in your own carrier's characteristics at that point. It's quite likely that the originators of the 802.11 proposal, would consider such a complex solution to the collision problem, both impractical and too expensive .. and I thank you for pointing out the appropriate section. Best regards, Mardy.
