[aprssig] Trying to Specify the CRC-16-CCITT FCS

[Charles Bland]

Kenneth,

Have you seen this?

2.2.7 Frame-Check SequenceThe frame-check sequence (FCS) is a sixteen-bit
number calculated by both the sender and receiver of a frame. It is used to
insure that the frame was not corrupted by the medium used to get the frame
from the sender to the receiver. It shall be calculated in accordance with
ISO 3309 (HDLC) Recommendations
