The noise that appears in images obtained with coherent illumination as is the case of sonar laser ultrasound-B and synthetic aperture radar is called speckle and it can be assumed neither Gaussian nor additive. The properties of speckle noise are well described by the multiplicative model a statistical framework from which stem several important distributions. Amongst these distributions one is regarded as the universal model for speckled data namely the G0 law. This paper deals with amplitude data so the Ga distribution will be used. The literature reports that techniques for obtaining estimates maximum likelihood based on moments and on order statistics of the parameters of the GA distribution require samples of hundreds even thousands of observations in order to obtain sensible values. This is verified for maximum likelihood estimation and a proposal based on alternate optimization is made to alleviate this situation. The proposal is assessed with real and simulated data showing that the convergence problems are no longer present. A Monte Carlo experiment is devised to
