Thanks Michael,

What is then the basic header sent in every package? Is there a  
generic header used by all radios for TOS2?
Is this it (from:http://www.tinyos.net/tinyos-2.x/doc/html/tep111.html  
cc1000_header)?
nx_am_addr_t addr; //source?
nx_uint8_t length;
nx_am_group_t group;
nx_am_id_t type;

And destination, sequence number for acks? Are added in higher level  
protocols?
Also can someone tell me if TOS uses a contention mechanism such as  
RTS/CTS?
Or  maybe better just point me out where I could read about the  
implementation details (as other questions will probably come)?
Thanks. Regards,

Joao
