So ... with Jose's system the only corroborating evidence is if two stations happen to show a spot
at the same time? That's it? 1.5.5 is so prone to false detections this doesn't provide much
confidence. The 'bandaid' ?? now in 1.5.6 does not address the underlying lack of corroboration in
1.5.5.
With DF6NM's system there's the correlation % and dB 'certainty' indicator, an accurate time
indicator of the transmission and a highly accurate frequency readout all of which can be compared
with other observers results.
I'm not buying that both WD2XNS spots are necessarily legit based on the flimsy
time stamp evidence.

Mike , new version 1-5-6
In this a single false opdy spot is flagged with Deep Search ?? Two spots of the
same station are taken as Ok text is
19:29 136 JA8SCD de JA8SCD/1 Op32 Deep Search ?? 0 mi -42 dB in Tokyo
In this case . JA is real , but only 1 station detect the signal , but as only 1
report , tagged ''??''
This is the disputed time . the 4 mins is not a timed event , its determined by
varying factors ,
in this case two spots at 0034 would indicate a genuine spot , last night some showed
5 mins lag

In this case , LA3EQ is spotted by 2 op decodes , with 5 min lag for DY, could be +/-

Graham,
The example you give below does not prove your case. In fact it does
the opposite. The last figure in the OPDS readout, "15.4dB", shows
that the decode is at the very edge of deciding that it is true and
must therefore be viewed with suspicion. OP does not have that kind
of figure. There is a lot of information in both the OPDS and WSPR
data that can flag up possible false decodes. The beauty of Opera is
that it is simple, but that is creating a problem here.
I don't even have a 136 Tx and am regularly spotted on 136
2015-01-01 19:01:38 G0NBD 2056km 137513.376Hz 3mHz -36.6dBOp 95%
15.4dB
The information below is even more worrying. Until now it seemed that
every false decode was reported by only one station. Jay says he was
not active but two stations concluded that what they saw was his
transmission.
This looks convincing to me, two at the same time into UK/SV
00:34 136 WD2XNS de SV8CS Op32 Deep Search 4722 mi -42 dB in
Zakynthos Island with 1w + 00:34 136 WD2XNS de 2E0ILY Op32 Deep
Search 3245 mi -42 dB in Shropshire IO82qv with 1w +
This is definitely still a work in progress.
