Op32 has been tested as roughly equivalent to QRSS10, so would be 
unlikely to produce a good enough signal/noise for DL-VK. 

The dilemma of LF DX: is that you need to use a very narrow bandwidth 
to get the S/N, so you need a very slow mode. However, the periods of 
good conditions are not open for very long, so you need a faster 
mode.

Coupled with this, there are relatively short periods of very good 
conditions amongst the QSB which could be taken advantage of by a 
faster speed.

Ideally you need a mode that will accumulate the results from several 
periods of good reception over a few hours or even over several days.
