subroutine osd240_74(llr,k,apmask,ndeep,message74,cw,nhardmin,dmin)
!
! An ordered-statistics decoder for the (240,74) code.
! Message payload is 50 bits. Any or all of a 24-bit CRC can be
! used for detecting incorrect codewords. The remaining CRC bits are
! cascaded with the LDPC code for the purpose of improving the
! distance spectrum of the code.
!
! If p1 (0.le.p1.le.24) is the number of CRC24 bits that are
! to be used for bad codeword detection, then the argument k should
! be set to 77+p1.
!
! Valid values for k are in the range [50,74].
