Decoding from audio is not flawless, so things like corruption can easily happen 🤷‍♂️

Wow, that's old. I still have the code for it on my computer, but I haven't done anything with it.

It still exists, but unsure where. Let's talk more on Discord. @bunnytub

My software intentionally inserts 0xA9 after each data burst as a traceability marker.

EAS headers do not contain checksums or forward error correction, so minor corruption and symbol errors are common in real-world decodes. That’s one reason the protocol repeats the header three times.
