John,

''Decode from LA4ANA''  -

That is the  output from the  dynamic DETECTOR  , ie  pattern matching
correlation  detector, provided as a  second lower  s/n  detection  system,
should the  Opera DECODER fail  to recover the  transmission.
lower limit for op32 ~ -40 dB s/n

The Dynamic detector attempts to  'pattern match'  the  Tx  010100   profile
,a primitive 'Painting by numbers' system if you like, dynamic is set to give ~ -6 dB
advantage.

The issue of false detection/real call signs is addressed in the Opera Dynamic system and the system output, clearly indicates when the spot is Opera or Dynamic, validated
or not.

False opera  decode =  call  sign format  'random characters'
False  dynamic detection  =  call  sign from  list ,  wrong  time  stamp

Deep Search ?? =   Not Validated

In the  case of a  non-validation '??'  ,

its  to the  users to evaluate the  situation ,
was the  station  sending ?
is the  frequency  that  of the  detected station ?
is the  time  stamp  aligned  with the  expected Tx ?

Issues with the psk-map seem to be a common theme, the system uploads have not
changed , but  map-housekeeping routines  could be  removing  swl markers

Subject: LF: Opera decode

Decode from LA4ANA  just after local sunset here..  was this station even
on air at 18_0141 utc ??? Must be bogus.
Anyone know why version of  Opera v1.5.8 on LF or MF  would not show on
PSK map.  Earlier versions used to.

03:06    136 WE2XPQ de VE7BDQ Op32 Deep Search ?? 2147 km -43 dB in
SOUTHDELTA BC 1474.1 Hz with 10w + Marconi
01:41    136 LA4ANA de VE7BDQ Op32 Deep Search ?? -42 dB in SOUTHDELTA BC
1531.3 Hz
