I have noticed on a number of occasions that our Novra S75 needs to be
reset after an outage or noise incident.  When I saw that we were once
again ingesting the NOAAPort broadcast, I logged onto one of our
ingesters (Solaris 10 x86) and ran S75_TEST.  Our indicated viterbi Bit
Error Rate was on the order of 10e-2 until I reset the device.  After
the reset, it has been hovering between 10e-5 and 10e-4.

Cheers,

Tom
