You have to do the de-stuffing before you check the length and decode the 
packet.

It will be obvious after you see it.  If the Trimble manual isn't good 
enough, google for byte-stuffing.

You will have similar troubles when other bytes have the magic value.  
Minutes and hours seem like good candidates.
