Oooops , just  looked again , up too  late  last night  watching  the  show

Thanks' Stefan

Quite interesting , especially the day light decode with TF3HZ and later 4X1RF , decoding at the limit of the OP8 speed
Nothing  showing  from the  USA , but  may  be  next  time under  better 
condx , also  Joe  vo1na may of  managed a  decdoe  , as he did Gary , 
running  300  watts  to a  35 ft top loaded  vertical , using OP8  last 
winter , but  would  of needed  some warning of the  event.


As Mike , suggested , a similar test with OP32 , -6 db lower , would be a good comparison , there is actually no limit to the time that the OP system can be configured to run, the longest is 4 Hours , OP4H for the 8Khz audio band , but once again, its data a mode and not 'just' a single carrier, so still falls short at -50 db s/n .. but if there was a station with a 'long' Ae ?
BUT  The  big  question  is , What  can  you  transmit ?  I assume the 
amplifier  is  class d/e  ...
Are  you  able to  translate   a audio  based data  mode to  136, the 
opera data  mode is  designed to  allow  access  to  data/beacon   with 
simple CW  transmitter  and  is not  as  efficient as mfsk  or  phase 
modulated system   ...
Tnx -73 -G.

Hello LF!

Thanks to all listening stations for the reports of the yesterdays OP8
orgy on LF! I must admit that it was an interesting
afternoon/evening/night/morning.

Out of 733 reports, here is a summary of the best reports i got from the
25 stations.

Vy 73, Stefan/DK7FC
