A radio device (100) receives a signal comprising first, second, and third words including message and error correction information. The second and third words are redundant words associated with the first word. A processor (120) compares each corresponding bit of the first, second, and third words to determine, for each corresponding bit, which of first and second bit values is a majority bit value and generates a fourth word including a bit for each corresponding bit. Each bit of the fourth word has a value equivalent to the majority bit value corresponding thereto. Error correction circuitry (135) performs error correction on the first, second, third, and fourth words utilizing the error correction information. The processor (120) then selects message information included in one of the first, second, third, and fourth words for presentation when at least one of the first, second, third, and fourth words has been corrected.
