According to the specification the random value has to change on every transmission: a random reference which is drawn randomly from a uniform probability distribution for every new transmission. In the TSM30 firmware this is done by having a table with random values and an index into the table which is initialised to a random value when the Immediate Assignment Procedure is started and incremented with every random number taken for a retransmission. The table has 32 values because the random reference is not larger than 5 bits. Best regards, Dieter -- Dieter Spaar, Germany spaar at mirider.augusta.de
