Noise threshold for positive quantum capacity of the depolarizing channel

For the qubit depolarizing channel $D_p(\rho) = (1 - p) \rho + (p/3)(X \rho X + Y \rho Y + Z \rho Z)$, find $p*$ with quantum capacity $Q(D_p) > 0$ if and only if $p < p*$. Known: $Q = 0$ for $p \ge 1/4$; the hashing bound is positive up to $p \sim 0.1893$, and degenerate codes push positivity above 0.19 (DiVincenzo, Shor and Smolin 1998; Smith and Smolin 2007), with further small improvements since. More generally, compute $Q(D_p)$ for any $0 < p < 1/4$.
