operator can choose the frequency where he transmits
Yes , but each end of the link needs
to have the same qrg , by convention , the
frequency coded in the software is used to
ensure maximum chance of intercept by other stations
Operation could be defined by carrier
frequency , using a set BFO offset , but
'dial set usb' is taken as the normal definition ,
this was formulated at the start of
wspr usage , where the concept of a receive
'audio band' was introduced , being simpler to
define the dial frequency..
casual intercept is possible , as onyl 50% of
the data is required for a decode (
unlike ROS-MF data mode , where the sync frame
'must' be decoded) but the search Rx must
remain stable for the remaining duration

Subject: LF: OPERA Question
Opera experts,
I have a simple question to Opera. If the
program keys a PTT of a PA like a CW key and the operator can choose the
frequency where he transmits, what is the range of frequencies where a decode
can be expected from someone who set his RX to e.g. 477 kHz? Is it a USB
bandwidth, so maybe from 300...3000 Hz, i.e. 477.3...480 kHz?? Can i completely
free decide where i want to transmit on? And if someone decides to let Opera
choose the transmit frequency in that band (e.g. by using a HF TRX and a
transverter), where does the program usually transmit. Is is accidentially oder
is the range much more limited?

Hi Graham
I have found that if I run 24 Watts no body hears me. If I run one Watt
people hear me?? If I boost the 1 Watt rig to 4 Watts same rig people
don't hear me...... dohh! It may be RF into the Opera PIC keyer? I will next
time try screening the PIC keyer. But the thing is my PC decodes
everything.... why?? Any ideas?

Am now sending op4 on 500 at 1/2 intervals on the hour and 1/2 hour
very approx. Can you report please if available will try to keep it on most
of afternoon.

RX set 500.000 usb , running
OP4 and WSPR rx at the moment

Hi all
While you are all testing Graham's theory on optimum band usage could
you report my OP4 transmissions. I am using the stand alone PIC 'JNT
designed Opera keyer switching my all Valve (Tube for our Cousins)
TX.
Power now increased to four (4) Watts O/P from the original 1Watt at
the antenna up lead. Antenna up lead abt 40 ft x 128ft long E/W. from
IO91UX.
