A few thoughts for Opera enhancements VLF to=20 160m

(1) Deep Search Detector built in to existing Opera system = with=20 ability to run alongside existing
Op decoders and report directly = to PSK=20 reporter

(2) Reinstate the dual receive function without = having to=20 open multiple instances of the software.

(3) Dynamically = resizable=20 screen or replace the dials with led bar type indicators - would make =
the=20 overall screen size a little smaller.

(4) Option to "tear off" = the=20 waterfall to enable positioning on another part of the monitor screen = -=20
like wsprx for example.
