That's what happens when there are static crashes, like those from the string of cells (or super-cells) moving across the Eastern US. Got FEC?? The station could improve the odds against him by using faster (or no AGC) for quicker recovery time to lessen the lost data (again, no FEC - no redundancy- no second chances)... Of course, the ease of using PSK as opposed to a mode with error correction attracts the masses, and is is narrow bandwidth... The station probably was actually decoding everything, including the static crashes and resulting lost data.... David KD4NUE
