Roman,
Opera Beacon , has two operating modes on 136 KHz OP8 and OP32 ,
OP8 , tx time = 8 minutes , S/N = APP -34 dB s/n
OP32 tx time = 32 minutes S/N = APP -39 dB s/n
The system is free running and requires -NO- time locking . Tx may
start at 'any' random time
OP uses On/OFF (CW) keying , Tx may be by using the windows base
software , with either SDR , audio drive or com-port (ptt type) PIC
or other micro based system
Rx is by the windows based software and may be via audio
(conventional data mode's) or by SDR . due to the numeric data
processing , a decode may be achieved with 'ANY' 50% (min) of the
data , The decode process is based on ''Average''
signal levels , advantage can be made of rapid qsb during each
individual Tx pulse by integration , impulse noise is filtered by
non-linear routines , numeric filtering facilitates pulse shape recovery
NO pre-filtering is required , use of narrow filters , noise limiters
etc will degrade decoder performance
When using conventional SSB tx/rx the frequency is defined as ' Rx
Dial set USB' , ie 136.00k , 500.000k and 477.000k..etc..
This ensures the correct audio pass band is selected , when using
the windows based software. each mode has a dedicated audio pass band ,
(defined on the waterfall display by two red lines , marking the
upper and lower boundary frequency , carriers 'must be inside limits
If using 'VFO' tx control, the Rf carrier frequency range :-
OP32 137.5 > 137.6 KHz
OP8 137.6 > 137.7 KHz
As the filter edges are quite steep it would be advisable to aim for
a frequency mid-band to accommodate system tolerances ,
Decode reports are distributed via the web or stored locally , but to
save the local results , the copy spots or highlight and copy/paste
is needed

Subject: RE: Re: LF: Beverage ant RX experiment
Hello Stefan!
I'm trying to ask abt it RD4HU, but is not sure abt to get an answers. The
team is so busy to field day prepare I think.
The acty at night saturday to sunday 100% will be needed.
RD4HU and RA4HGN vy skilled op's and informed abt all modes, freq's and
OPERA.

Hi LF.
RD4HU & Co planning to make an 136 kHz Beverage ant experiment in
LO52hs at next weekend 10-11-12 avg.
2 km beverage ant will be installing into steppe area direct to the EU.
OK, thanks for the information.
The action team requests to support the experiment by your
transmissions.
You can count on me. Just tell me what mode and frequency you prefer.
Some details you can find on the russian forum 136.su on russian
language:
