That reminds me about a thought i recently had:
If the decode level of OP8 can be compared to QRSS-3, isn't there a
chance to use QRSS-3 instead and program an application that will decode
the callsign???
The other features can be applied as well of course (listing, mapping...).
Then everybody would be happy :-)

Graham es Co
While Opera es other data modes are an alternative to CW for a change they
need another level of demodulation and cannot really compete with the basic
CW mode or QRSS CW.
I often see traces of all data modes that could easily be identified in QRSS
but they do not decode therefore the purpose of the transmission is lost.

Why do you think so?
Its linked to the DSP engine in Op , there is a timing issue , if
other applications lock the sound card at a different rate , due to
the % tolerances , low level decodes can be lost , noting, Op is a
'data mode , so the overheads in the transmission are much higher ,
as are the DSP engine requirements , as can be seen with 'older' pc's
cpu loading can be a issue , as is a one-pass system , all the
processing is taking place in real time
But on with the show ,
73 -G..
-76 dB in 28 mHz b/w , what is that when translated to 2.5Khz
B/w ?

from this , it seems that propagation on 136 is really linked to
the
seasons ?
Yes (of course) and no. W1VD received me quite well a few weeks ago, see

Not to forget W1TAG:

So there is some propagation in summer but of course it depends on the
solar activity. Don't know how the condx have been yesterday.
One point from previous trials , If Spec-lab is used with Opera
, then SL must be set to 48Khz sample rate , or OP can loose
low
level decode sensitivity.
Why do you think so? As long as the frequency range of a SSB bandwidth
at
audio levels passes through the SL filter, then it should be fine. So 8
kHz SR should be fine. Of course it depends on which shift frequency you
have to use. I have to use 11 kHz shift and so i choosed a SR of 30 kHz.
