        What about all of those 10-base-T and Ethernet cards? Glenn Elmore used
        one of them in his 2 MBPS microwave system (in old ARRL handbooks). I th
ink
        he used the "external transceiver" connection (do they call this the AUI
        port?). The only question I have regards slowing down the clock speed of
        the 10 MBPS cards, but I'm sure that this is possible with some cards.

Why slow it down?  Instead of 4 Mbps, why not just jump to a full 10 Mbps?
Would anyone complain about the 250% increase between 4 and 10 Mbps?  I
certainly wouldn't.
