Very likely a false decode. The clue is the two question marks. In my 
experience, almost every decode with question marks is false, and 
there are very few cases where these particular decodes are useful. I 
believe it would be helpful not to display these at all.

Having said that, the deep search facility in Opera is very useful 
and has revealed some very interesting propagation information. But 
only using the decodes without the question marks which, again in my 
experience, are almost always genuine.
