ethernet over radio?

Hello guys,
I just got the $15 ethernet cards working between my linux and
win-95 computers. They can be configured to be ne2000 clones and work
very well in this mode.

These are 10K2 devices and I suspect the details of the waveform
that they generate into the coax links is well known. So why can't we
use the ethernet card as our TNC and build data radios that have 10 MHz
bandwidth?

In other words cash in on the diskless generation?
