Thats true,
 
But in this  case , Its  more  likely to  be  classified  as  'Company Confidential'
 
Take pactor-4  and  Ros-hf  , both  use the  same  SS techniques   , but  where  as  pactor-4   is  a  one  qso  one  channel  mode  , Ros-hf  has a  cdma layer  in the  software  , which  allows  multiple access to the  same  channel , ie  much higher  b/w/user efficiency
 
Now  traditionally , to  separate   users  in cdma  each needs  a separate  Pn-key number , but  ros-hf any  station  may  decode  any other  station  , or  just the  one by  selection  at the  Rx   , when  selected  it  affords  a  packet like  one  to  one  qso  , with  other  qso's  on the  same  channel  , but all  at the  same  rate  and  same s/n  level  , ok that's  SS  , but  how is the  separation  achieved .. ?   that facility  would  make p-4  very  desirable  
 
Commercial  value is the  deciding  factor  in this case ?

Surely, Graham, this is dependent on the terms of whatever licence the IP is released. It might be relevant to argue these matters against the terms of the various GPL that have been defined. Richard Stallman presents some good arguments that are particularly relevant to Open Source etc.

What your saying is for those of us wanting to improve things go play with the other systems and leave OPERA just as it is? Bob

There  are plenty of  commercial  data  mode  systems  in use  on the  Ham bands  that  are locked  and not  publicised , from  my experience , the  locked systems seem to  give a  superior level  of performance  to the  open    code  versions , pactor-4  being a  good  example , using  modern  ss techniques  achieves  high data/power  ratio , but  missing  is the  cdma  layer that  would  enhance  b/w  user efficiency  , but  that  exists in another locked data  mode , which is  free
 
So  where /what  is the  problem ?

Thanks for forwarding the message Bob - so I won't spend any effort in implementing Opera myself if Markus's DS algorithm is really embedded in the Ros-software.
Despite the fact that I don't like, and will not use, the original Opera software myself as long as its author makes such a secret of it, leaving it to others to reverse-engineer the algorithms.

Cheers,
  Wolf .

A few thoughts for Opera enhancements VLF to 160m

(1) Deep Search Detector built in to existing Opera system with ability to run alongside existing
Op decoders and report directly to PSK reporter

(2) Reinstate the dual receive function without having to open multiple instances of the software.

(3) Dynamically resizable screen or replace the dials with led bar type indicators - would make
the overall screen size a little smaller.

(4) Option to "tear off" the waterfall to enable positioning on another part of the monitor screen -
like wsprx for example.
