% Modified 30/04/2002 by Thorsten Kastner - changed standard hopsize to 30ms

% This next section of code is to ensure minimal stray from the sampling period
% This is done by interleaving minor hopsize with major
% e.g if  10 10 10 10 10 11 11 are the hops then the pattern should be
% 10 10 10 11 10 10 11
