If you look more carefully at the error log:

    Error: err=84 sc=00 sn=fe cl=b3 ch=18 dh=e2 status=51 state=03 
lifetime=0005
...
    Error: err=84 sc=00 sn=7e cl=86 ch=29 dh=e2 status=51 state=03 
lifetime=0005
...
    Error: err=84 sc=00 sn=7e cl=86 ch=29 dh=e2 status=51 state=03 
lifetime=0005
etc.

These are all CRC errors.
