Abstract

A method in a radio communication device (110) for receiving a lengthy message comprises the steps of receiving an RF signal (300) comprising header information (310) and submessages (305), wherein each submessage (305) is a portion of the lengthy message, and comparing header information (310) corresponding to a submessage (305) with header information corresponding to previously stored submessages, If the header information (310) corresponding to the submessage (305) is not substantially equivalent to header information corresponding to at least one of the previously stored submessages, the submessage is stored in a memory (225). The method further comprises the step of combining the submessages (305), in response to the header information (310), to form the lengthy message.
