[Lowfer] Mounting interest for OP/OPDS 137 tonight...

Not trying to re-open a can of worms here ;~)

Standard OPERA or OP does *decode* the signal without a list of transmitting stations. OPERA Deep 
Search OPDS takes this a step further and does *detect* a signal using a list of possible stations. 
We probably shouldn't use the word *decode* when talking about OPDS ... just so there's no 
confusion.
