AGWPEpro can decode nearly anything at any deviation level from barely audible to badly clipped. The signal processing brought to bear in that software rules the decoding performance race.
With that said, the V1.2 T2-135 with the additional filter on-board (at least, I think that's what was done to it) is dramatically better at decode performance than the original board (yes, I tested them both and now run 2 V1.2 boards). It now decodes on par with the TT4 and the KPC, but still not near AGWPEpro. Lynn (D) - T2-135s as KJ4ERJ-9 (my car) and KJ4OVQ-9 (wife's van)
