Ok Paul

Well , Opera and Mark's systems are not the same , Opera is recovering data , with afc/fec , and the DS , devised by Marcus , is correlating the Opera encoded data pattern and requires high stability etc

But there are swings and roundabouts , Opera will decode with up to 50% of the data missing , block or randomly distributed ..

From observation's there could be 6 or more db difference in the
reported s/n levels , Op is the average over the tx cycle , wspr gives a peak level , Opera is complimentary to the ROS data mode and indicates the path suitability for data tx /rx

Minimum Op, levels depend on various factors , one being , keeping the 'pulse' as close to original as possible , I gained -3 dB using a 'cheap sdr' on 477K over the racal Rx ..

OP32 min as used on 136 KHz , gives ~ -41 dB min , so OP2H should run - 47 , I note Dex reached -48 , which is -54/55 on Marcus's scale

Tnx , G,

Thanks for that Graham.

I'm just trying to see how far short we are of an opera decode.

I just got another 0.84 dB S/N improvement by shifting the loop
a little further from the prevailing noise, and by compensating
for the slight elliptical polarisation of the signal.

Markus reported:

> 2014-03-07 06:51:53 ... -48.9dBOp 100% 19.4dB

so I guess that would now be -48.1dBOp.

But still 2 or 3dB short I think?
