Additional suggestions (I've been playing with a 'mega8 but have not employed the ADC yet): You are always better off with a larger Vref, since 1/1024th of Vref is your LSB. Your analog system noise should be an order of magnetude lower than this. There should be a low pass filte

I believe that the slot time is based on the propagation delay between the two most distant stations and is tied to the time that a station needs to detect a collision. In principle it is just a way of defining a relevant length of time. The different stations use random integer

For this application, you really DO NOT need a very random value. The whole idea is that the transmitters that "collided" wait different time intervals before retrying. You just want one to be different than the other. Don't bother with all that stuff to get genuinely random valu
