{t says in the "Usage" sub-heading: Apple's LocalTalk implemented CSMA/CA on an electrical bus using a three-byte jamming signal

What exactly is this jamming signal? Isnt jamming signal sent when a collision is detected in the network to warn the other hosts connected to the CSMA network about the collision? If so, doesnt this make it CSMA/CD rather than CSMA/CA? —Preceding talk) 03:44, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
