Hello Randie, My previous message that contained no reply was going to ask why you didn't consider another flavor of FEC, but then my eye caught your firm name and it became clear that you had no choice -- your data is coming to you in Reed-Solomon. We are in the process of using Convolutional / Viterbi which in many of its incarnations gives good results too.
