This counts frames received over the satellite link that failed the CRC check performed specifically by the FPGA's packet processor. Because this check happens after the separate HDLC-level CRC check, errors here point to corruption introduced during internal packet processing on this modem's FPGA rather than pure line noise on the RF path. For example, this counter rising while cdmipWanFpgaRxHdlcCrcErrorCount stays flat would point suspicion at the FPGA's internal packet-processing path rather than the satellite RF link.
