Ok Mal
 
Looks  like your  running  ok at the  moment , as long  as you  net  inside the  audio  band  .then all  ok ..   for  Rx  just  use the  ssb  filter.. a  no need  for a  sharp filter  as the  software, takes  care  of that side .. 
 
.   The  longer  op16  did  not  give  good  results  over  long  dx , possibly due to the   'flash'  propagation , the  faster  versions  , can put  more 'data' into the  decoder  during  the  peaks , once  Op  is over  about 55%  then  a  decode  (should) take  place , the  data  loss  can be  randomly  lost  during  the  tx time  .....  yes  for  ground  wave , then the  longer versions  will  decode  at  lower  levels  ..on 136  OP8  and  OP32   are  giving  good  results , from  what  can be  seen on  qrss  screen  shots , 30  mins  looks to  be about  the  average  ''up  time''   for  most  signals  at  range ..
 
Tnx -G.

I am using a CW TX and place the carrier on 501.5 Khz. and likewise on 137.5 Khz I assume this is correct. Using a ssb TX needs a different approach. The RX end might be more critical but I suppose if one selects  the USB mode with sufficient bandwidth to receive the transmission between the green lines it should work.
 To take advantage of a RX with a narrow cw filter it might be an advantage to use CW mode and adjust the BFO to position the received transmission in the correct slot. I must try this

Mal,
 
Make sure you are  in the  right  frequency  band  for the  speed , or  no  stations  will  decode  you  ,   501.5 is on the  change over  frequency .  stay  with  OP4   as  16  is not  giving  good  decodes  at  range.

Tnx Jay
I could try tonite START 2300 utc 501.5 signal freq. Sigs to the West are low at present on 137 es from now on will not be as good as over the peak Xmas period generally speaking

501.5 kHz was clear this side last night ... will be glad to park a receiver on 501.5 to look for your (or any other EU) signals. Note that Stefan's signal was more than 10 dB down from usual last night although it looks like we're getting a fairly quick DST index recovery from the latest event.

Bob,      497 is still in the cluttered area ie 498.5 actual freq. How about 508 or higher for NA tx. In the UK 501.5 is not the ideal freq either, bad for the traditional CW operator working around 501.5 - 502.5 Khz. How about a spot higher up like 504 near the top band edge out of the way.
East coast USA stns let me know when the freq is clear and I will try some OPERA before the dx season dries up for this year.

N6ry had a long list of decodes. Going west the band was good. N6RY was rxing anywhere from -17 to -21. Also decodes from W0YSE in UTAH he was having bad QRN condtions but still some solid decodes. Nothing from VK. Surprisingly nothing across the pond.
Hopefully better tonite. I have been asked to move out of the DX window as it is rite in your small transmit freq window. Some rxing stations here in NE are trying to decode UK/EURO opera/ros. Wish them luck but skip as of late has been short with very strong sigs close in. I overload their RX. 
I checked PA3WEG RX and 497 dial [498.5 sigs] looks very clean. I'll fire up there and notify on 600 mrg-lowfer-opera about move.
