[Tinyos-help] Delta and retransmissions question

[Joe Polastre]

No, this is the total number of retransmissions that have occurred
over the life of the network.  The number increases to 255, then
resets due to rollover.

This is an 8bit number that seems to start at 0 and just increases until it reaches 127, and then it goes back and starts increasing again. Can anyone explain what's going on? I presumed retransmissions to be the number of transmissions it took for that DeltaMsg to get through due to interference etc, am I completely wrong?
