David, You should have a look at the code from Joe Taylor for JT9, JT65 or FT8, as= that code will dig signals buried deep into the noise. I think that the code is public domain, but I might be wrong. Just a thought, Jean-Paul N1JPL > On Jan 10, 2019, at 11:21 AM, David Van Horn wrote: >=20 > I have no control over the source.
