Thanks Terry
 
Definitely  worked ! this is from the  psk  data  base , using  the  command line  search  ,
 
On the  sdr side,  I think  there  is a  lot of  mileage to be  had , but as you  can see , without the  necessary   'skills  it  cannot  be  done , eg, the  web-sdr  implemented  by the  Dutch , now  that  would  give  you  individual  windows  from the  same  data  source , its  possible  at  home , but  you  cannot allocate separate  audio  feeds , noise  is stacked  up in the  process  ... 
 
Tnx  , G..

Fell asleep over the keyboard at 23:00 so took a guess and left the system at 136.227 OP32.

 

SDR14/SpectraVue was set up with dual channel receive ?dial? frequencies 136.000 and 136.227 kHz with mono output so the OP32 decoder was seeing both OP32 sub-bands and could dual decode VO1NA and the ?normal? stations DF2JP DF6NM etc. Bet it wasn?t designed to do that as the decoder sees an extra 3dB of noise in this arrangement but it seems to have sorted all the signals out.

 

Now off to the Telford rally.

 

73 and thanks for the test

Thanks  Terry 

 

This where  it  becomes a little  messy 

 

The  mid  band  audio  frequency's    are     OP32  =   1550 Hz   and OP8 = 1650  Hz

 

So  for a  carrier  frequency  of  137.777  KHz  , that  gives   Rx dial  set usb   of  136.227    for  OP32    and   136.127  for  OP8

 

As the  pass  bands  are  100 Hz  wide  , then  these will  be   +/-  50 Hz  max  

 

So  depending  on the Rx  setting  accuracy , you  could  round  down  to the  last  ,  20 Hz  or  7 Hz

 

Eg my  Skanti  R5003 tunes  in 100 Hz  steps  , so  136.2  or  136.1 , would  put  me  27 Hz  off  , which  all  being  well  , leaves 20 Hz  or  so  to the  filter  edge

 

All  Joe needs  to  post  in  advance  is the selected  mode  speed  as  a  change  of  speed  , will  need  a  Rx  re-set . I don't  think  Joe's   TX P/C is  web linked , so  there  will  not  be a  TX  beacon ,

 

 

73-G.

 

NB::  Now  if you  want , that  could also  be  translated  to a  dial  set   for  LSB as the  Opera  mode  is  only  1  tone ........  but  I don't  think we will  go  there just yet  .. but  would  that  drop  dfc39  out of the  rx pass  band .... I wonder ..

Yes no problem. Please could you confirm the ?dial? frequency?

 

If Opera could specify left or right audio channels I could do both sub-bands as SDR-IQ/SpectraVue provides a two channel Rx with output on L and R channels. Maybe SL could do the split for Opera.

 

I?ll keep an eye on BS to see when to set up.

Joe  was   asking  about  running  Opera  beacon  on  137.777  as he is  fixed  frequency , but  problem  is  arranging  a  monitor  group  as  operations  are  now  136.000 usb  

 

Is it  possible  you  could  monitor  137.777  using  Op mode  , If Joe  runs overnight  again ? Im sure  we can  arrange  others  to  join in 

 

Tnx

 

Graham

Screen grab of your signals last night. Strongest appears around 04:30 UTC with interesting deep QSB dip about 1 hr later. Still copy at 07:00 UTC.
