So what you mean is in tinyos-1.x is impossible to bypass this problem, isn'it?
Or if there is a solution in 1.x, in my project would be really important,
should you explain it?
Thanks very much,
Cheers

Yes, this is really happening. It's a fairly nasty issue in the 1.x
stack. The TinyOS 2.0 stack doesn't have this issue; it keeps track
of packets in the FIFO and spools them out one by one. If a packet
can't fit in the FIFO, then the radio doesn't acknowledge it.
