To be honest I just don't have a clue.

I did some experiments to use the existing CRC algorithms (trial and 
error based), but this is really no indication if it's possible or not ;-)

If you would like to do some "more educated" experiments on this I could 
send you a capture file with some valid CRCs in PM.
