Hi Joe,

I get it. That’s a really neat case. 

It just dawned on me that having improved the SNR of the sync tone correlation 
by 3 dB, we should be able to raise the detection threshold a bit and possibly 
reduce the number of spurious (false detections) vectors. That might speed 
things up a bit. 

Enjoy the conference!
