[Tinyos-help] CC2420 behaviour regarding CRC error

when the cc2420 radio receives a packet, it checks whether the CRC bytes
in the packet are correct or not (via HW). and then it replaces the two 
CRC bytes at the
end of the packet with RSSI information and some correlation values, and 
only
one bit to tell whether the recieved packet had valid CRC or not.

At this point my question is: if the bit of CRC is 0 (CRC-Error) which 
is the behaviour of the radio stack ?
is launched an event ? which module launch/catch the event ? the message 
is deleted from RX queue immediatly ?


thanks

Paolo.
