I agree with Trent on this one - dropping the packet at the hardware level is a bad idea. If the demodulator is incapable of setting the TEI bit (which most do) and you are forced to rely on the TSERR line, then you should be marking the TEI bit and passing the packet on. Dropping the packet at the hardware level is likely to cause confusion for app developers (why am I only getting 60% of the expected packets?) Like I said above though, in most cases I've seen the demod does all the work and there is no need to act on the TSERR line at all. Devin -- Devin J.
