 _JT65 decoding parameters_ 
 
-- *Random erasure patterns* sets the number of pseudo-random trials
-used by the Franke-Taylor JT65 decoder, on a logarithmic scale.
-Larger numbers give slightly better sensitivity but take longer.  For

 decodes using Deep Search.  Higher numbers will display results
