Of course Roman , can have funny wrong call's any data mode will make those , more funny is people compare data decoding with correlation detection and not realise why correlation has lower s/n , and particularly hilarious is those who know what's happening and don't tell anyone .
Opera only deploys dynamic on 477/136 , the HF to SHF are all simply data decodes, where as the Magic Mode has mixed correlation and decoding on all bands , which explains how it survives Doppler spreads 3 times its b/w on 10 MHZ and even works , some times on vhf .. mfsk can be correlated , just the same as ook , the time locking has more to do with pattern matching, than decoding data .
As some one pointed out , 'What ever colour the cat , as long as it catches the mouse' just in this case , the cat's out of the bag and it turns out , there are more than one in there .
Graham I rx too mny false and fantoms in OPERA for long 3 years.
As usual this is not real calls.
That's interesting Luis ..one those . the kings not wearing anything moment's jiji
By the qrg 400k , this was a wspr 2 TX ?
So the only way Stefan's call sign could be recovered is from the look up table as part of a correlation process [ see other linking posts]
Its IMPOSSIBLE for Opera to produce such false Decode
But if you mean DYNAMIC Detection , has Ghosts , that's true for any correlation system and the ghosts always take on real life forms
However the Phantom , has provided a Time stamp Ghost Buster validation system . something wspr cannot as it already uses the web for time locking , oddly , accurate time is required for a correlation system ...
People are not too sure of the difference between Decode and Detection , but those who do , like the extra dB's one gives over the other
As I noted previously
''no one minds a bit of the 'Old Jaspers' as long as its not take too seriously''
6 meters is known as the Magic band , may be wspr should be the 'Magic' Mode

Hi Mike, MF
From my records last night, DK7FC was transmiting in 06-16-26-36 ... periods, but not at 23:04
The locator shown in your decode is also wrong
The closest frame to the time you decoded was at 23:06
2306 -21 -1.2 0.475684 0 DK7FC JN49 30
Not only Opera has its ghost ! ;-)

Hi All: I'm not sure what to think of this....
I have been experimenting with IF shifting my radio to get WG2XJM very strong signal 10 to 13 dB down the IF bandpass
curve to improve weak signal reception of other stations when Eric is transmitting. Odd sunset partial captures appear
to be transatlantic, but I am not sure about reality with this data. My EWE antenna was configured to favor a SE direction, but with
120 degree 3dB beam width pattern it covers the NE as well. Long distance transition zone propagation is a possibility, but I
would be hesitant to claim it not having received correct grid square information......
