Good catch. Have an opinion on error cirrection for an rf link?

A great deal depends on the consequences of missing a packet and of
getting an incorrect packet.

If the costs of a missed packet are high then you should look into
forward error correction algorithms.

If you can afford to miss a packet (or are able to request a
retransmission) but the cost of incorrectly decoding a packet then
look into CRC algorithms.

Wikipedia is a good place to start.
