Morse Code Training Programs and CW Simulators
Find software tools to learn, practice, and improve your Morse Code (CW) sending and receiving skills for amateur radio operation.
Learning Morse code, or CW, remains a fundamental skill for many ham radio operators, opening up new bands and modes for QSOs. Even in the age of digital modes like FT8, CW offers unique advantages for weak signal work and contesting. Many hams find the challenge of mastering CW to be one of the most rewarding aspects of amateur radio activity.
This category provides various software tools to help operators learn and improve their CW speed. You will find applications like Morse Machine and G4FON CW Trainer, which use the Koch method for efficient learning. Other programs, such as CWQSO and Pileup Runner, simulate real-world QSOs and contest environments, allowing hams to practice sending and receiving CW in realistic scenarios, including managing DX pileups.

Protect your radio tower and solar charged battery power supply by sending the correct Morse code transmissions. Tap out alphanumeric characters in Morse code to prevent your radio station from being destroyed by the Morse code meteor attack! Meteors may be destroyed in any order. All levels start with a fully charged battery. Each DIT uses 1% battery power. Each DAH uses 3% battery power. Your battery charges at a nominal rate of 1% every 5 seconds, and total charge increases by 1% for every correct Morse code transmission. In addition, you have two solar panels that each contribute 1% to the battery charge rate. If your solar panels are destroyed, there are no replacements for that game. When your battery runs low, an SOS prosign bonus appears. Destroy this entity to recharge your battery. -
