CC430 Packet Handler Question

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC430F5137, CC1101

Hello, I am using a CC430F5137 chip which encompasses the MSP430 + CC1101 chips.

I would like to implement the AX.25 protocol using this radio chip but after reading the documentation it seems as though there is no possible way to do this without bypassing the internal packet handler. If the internal packet handler is bypassed this would result in greater MCU usage and a higher current consumption (according to the documentation) The internal packet handler encases the data field with sync, preamble and CRC bits which do not adhere to the AX.25 protocol specifications.

Is there a way to disable these bits while still using the internal packet handler or is there a way to roll our own packet handler without sending a data stream to the MCU. What is the suggested path to accomplish this?
