Alex, LF,
the Op32 signal from R7NT was well visible in the
21 mHz TA window. I made two recordings of a 2 Hz band around the anounced
frequency, one from 22:08 to 08:11 UT and another one in daylight from
12:06 to 15:25. Then I ran both through my Opera correlation
detector, see attached result.
The first two lines are a list of several
known active Opera stations. Each of these was tried in the cross
correlation procedure. The lines below
that are the successful hits. Going from left to right, the printed
output contains:
time window for correlation (decimal UT hours
before / after midnight last night),
frequency of carrier peak,
uncalibrated "raw" dB of detected
carrier,
carrier SNR after a "carrier autofocus"
procedure, which removes small amouts of chirp and optimally weighs the
amplitude for QSB,
SNR on the Opera scale (ie. carrier in 2.5
kHz minus 4 dB),
either c or i for a coherent or
incoherent demodulation,
UT hour of the winning correlation peak
(corresponds to the start of the transmission,
SNR of correlation peak in time
domain,
callsign of the winner of the correlation
procedure.
Now running a recording on 137567 to look for
UA0AET tonight.
Best 73,
Markus (DF6NM)
