Narrative:
Requested deviation west off course as previously advised unable easterly deviation due non radar environment. Cleared to deviate west without restr by ZJX. During deviation we were cleared descend FL290, again, without restr or TA. During descent, TCASII advised traffic as we were given radar heading. This was the 6TH deviation of the day and for every deviation that had a mileage limit, we would put an offset into the FMC. Without any limitation, we did not have any offset. Later on same frequency, we were advised loss of separation had occurred.

Title: ZJX CTLR ADVISES A300 FLC THAT THEY WERE INVOLVED IN AN OPERROR DURING WX DEVS.
Narrative: REQUESTED DEV W OFF COURSE AS PREVIOUSLY ADVISED UNABLE EASTERLY DEV DUE NON RADAR ENVIRONMENT. CLRED TO DEVIATE W WITHOUT RESTR BY ZJX. DURING DEV WE WERE CLRED DSND FL290, AGAIN, WITHOUT RESTR OR TA. DURING DSCNT, TCASII ADVISED TFC AS WE WERE GIVEN RADAR HEADING. THIS WAS THE 6TH DEV OF THE DAY AND FOR EVERY DEV THAT HAD A MILEAGE LIMIT, WE WOULD PUT AN OFFSET INTO THE FMC. WITHOUT ANY LIMITATION, WE DID NOT HAVE ANY OFFSET.
