Here is my personal experience comparing Multipsk and DM-780 in Olivia 500/16:
DM-780 needs significant more time for synchronizing than Multipsk (the first 2 or even 3 or 4 letters of a call are not decoded in DM- 780). I haven't seen any better decoding by DM-780 under S/N figures down to -10 / -11 dB. 73 Juergen, DL8LE --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, "Andrew O'Brien" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Olivia mode comparisons, testers needed. > > I am interested in testing weak signal reception of Olivia 500/16 in the > following applications > > Multipsk > DM780 > MixW > FL-Digi > > I'm looking to test the above applications and... > > 1 Determine the typical "lag" experienced when decoding .
