A voice keyer for Morse Code written for Arduino

M2 CW decoder Kit, is an Arduino based morse code decoder, kit produced and delivered by WB7FHC

The CW keyer with memories, inspired by SOTA activities, features three on-the-fly programmable memories for hands-free operation during logging or specific calls. Designed for low power consumption, it uses AAA batteries and an Arduino Mini, optimized for minimal energy use with a sleep function. The compact design fits in a small TEKO box, with a printed circuit board for easy assembly. The keyer includes customizable software for various CW modes and settings, programmable via paddles and command mode. It's an efficient, portable solution for amateur radio enthusiasts seeking enhanced CW functionality.

The project details the construction of a small, portable **CW decoder** built around an Arduino Nano and an LM567 tone decoder circuit. It integrates an OLED display for output and is powered by a 1200 mAh Li-Po battery. The Arduino Nano is programmed with a modified version of the OST Morse Box firmware, originally based on Budd, WB7FHC's work, provided as a HEX file for flashing. The LM567 output connects to Arduino pin D2, while pins A6 and A7 are grounded due to the absence of potentiometers, simplifying the circuit. Standard I2C connections are used for the OLED: SDA to A4 and SCL to A5. The entire assembly, including the Arduino, OLED, and decoder circuit, is mounted on a perfboard to fit precisely within an old cassette tape box. This design emphasizes portability and compact form factor. Parameters for the decoder can be adjusted using a dedicated Windows Control program, offering flexibility in operation. The resource provides practical insights into adapting existing firmware for specific hardware constraints and achieving a self-contained, battery-powered **Morse code** decoding solution.

Demonstrates an **Arduino-based** solution for the Icom IC-7300 transceiver, specifically addressing the operational inconvenience of switching between a CW paddle and a straight key. The project leverages the IC-7300's **CI-V bus** (Computer Interface 5) to provide instant keyer type selection and two preset power levels, bypassing the rig's menu system which otherwise requires eight button presses. This implementation utilizes the 3.5mm CI-V connector, leaving the USB port free for CAT control and the internal soundcard, a critical design choice for integrated station setups. The system's utility is particularly evident for CW operators who frequently alternate between keying methods during contesting or general operating. The article details the hardware setup, including an Arduino Nano, a 3.5mm jack for CI-V, and pushbuttons for control. An update in 2023 expanded the project to incorporate an 8-button Nintendo controller, enhancing user interface flexibility and demonstrating the adaptability of the initial design for further customization and feature integration.
