CwType

CwType v2.35 provides a dedicated terminal interface for CW operators, facilitating Morse code transmission from a Windows PC. Users can input characters via the keyboard or a connected paddle, supporting iambic keying. The software manages transceiver control, including PTT and CW keying, through COM or LPT ports. It offers adjustable speed, dash/dot ratio, and inter-letter spacing, with real-time speed display in LPM and WPM calculated by the "PARIS" method.

The program includes features like MOX mode for automatic TX on/off, configurable weighting to compensate for transceiver element clipping, and programmable F-key macros for sending predefined text or special sequences. CwType can integrate with logging software such as AALog (V1.0.3 and later) for data transfer, and supports various character sets including English, Russian, and Swedish. A beacon mode is also available, executing the Alt-F12 macro periodically at a user-defined interval.

Audio output for monitoring can be routed through the internal PC speaker or a sound card, with options for sine waveform and smooth envelope generation for SSB transmitters. The software is compatible with Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10 and is distributed as freeware.
