Inquiring the CC2500 RSSI status register under Serial Sync mode

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2500

Hi

I saw a post in which one of the users was trying to make continuous RSSI reading on some channel using the CC2500 and he was wondering about the right mode for that. Along the answers that he got I saw one answer (from a TI employee) telling him to use the Continuous RX mode in which he has to set

PKTCTRL0= 0x12 (sync serial mode and infinite packet length.

My question is: what will happen if I set PKTCTRL0= 0x02 will I still be able to do the same job?

Also, in the sync serial mode can I still use the SPI to inquire the value in the RSSI status register? or the SPI is no longer there and I have to use the two wire interface (like GDO0) for input output?

Regards.
