Wireless ad-hoc networks must accept the presence of unsynchronized interfering signals. To identify the user of interest, some form of training must be used, e.g. colour code or a short training burst. Instead of a single block of training, it is better to have the training symbols dispersed over the packet. We propose a semiblind algorithm for the separation and equalization of the packet of the user of interest, received over multipath fading channels. The algorithm is based on a direct equaliser approach, combined with ideas from blind ``mutually referenced equalisers'' (MRE).
