About
MetriTalk (Metricom Radio Wireless AppleTalk) (C) 1994-1996 Stuart Cheshire MetriTalk is an AppleTalk Device Driver 'adev' file that provides wireless AppleTalk communication over Metricom packet radio tranceivers. Metricom radios are channel-hopping spread-spectrum packet radio devices that operate in the 902-928MHz band. They have a peak throughput of 100kbit/sec. With a clear line-of-sight path they can have a range of several miles but in built-up areas about half a mile is more typical. In the San Francisco Bay area, and on a few University campuses, Metricom has installed pole-top repeaters that forward the packets, giving them effectively unlimited range in those areas.
