"Well  that's  a  TWO BIT  description if ever  there  was one :-)

Some one has been at the wobbly  bob again

And we had just one coincidental detection all night , despite there being 14 active monitors' , strangely from 18:55 to 22:55 , there are no false dynamic detections showing on my local copy , now what are the odds of that happening , may be
page 70  will  reveal  all  ?

Next it be that no one can win the lottery as the odds are over 40^6 :1

Mines a Pint or 568.261485 millilitres  if we  want  to  be  exact
now  dose that  include  the  head or  not ? is nothing  exact :(

Hi Jochen,

I think the discussion about Opera's own 'deep search' mode (or whatever the proper name is) was done here (or on "the other" reflector) over a year ago, and the main problem I see is that the 'real time web-based exchange' of currently active stations means fooling oneself. Consider this: You know there are only four possible callsigns which have been transmitting, so in reality the software only has to decide for a TWO BIT number. Much easier than "really" decoding the entire number of message bits in an Opera message.

In my very personal point of view, this 'real time web exchange of stations (calls) which are currently transmitting' should not be used at all. For comparison, Markus' (DF6NM's) own deep search uses a quite large table which is *static*, which means that his decoder has no chance to play unfair (because it doesn't know who's currently active or not), and it also doesn't know what others receive (over the internet). What I don't know is how many stations are currently in that list, and thus how many bits the algorithm effectively has to "decode" (well, it doesn't really decode, it also makes a best guess from a limited number of list entries to chose from).

All the additional data which look as if they were "decoded" (eg "VK3ELV ... 140w + Top loaded L 18m vert 80m horz") have been taken from a database (***including the callsign***), not radio .. the only real information is the '- 37 dB' report, and the two question marks which imho may as well have been ten or twenty (considering the season and the distance).

Well just my two pence of wisdom. I don't use Opera and don't think I ever will.

Cheers,
  Wolf .

Hi Wolf,

You are not disappointing me at all. I put this issue under discussion myself.

Please share your opinion about this to this topic to us in detail. Maybe I missed A discussion about this before, but I am very interested in arguments about this
Topic.

Thanks, Jochen

Any comments welcome
