CwGet v2.55 is a software application designed for amateur radio operators to decode Morse code (CW) signals into text using a standard computer sound card, eliminating the need for specialized hardware. The program features a customizable interface with three primary windows: a spectrum display for visualizing signal frequencies and peaks, an oscillogram for monitoring signal presence and setting detection thresholds, and a received symbols window for displaying decoded text. Key functionalities include Automatic Frequency Control (AFC) to lock onto signals, adjustable FIR and IIR filters for noise reduction, and a burst filter to mitigate short noise impulses. It also supports automatic CW speed detection, multiple character sets, and the ability to record and replay received audio. Integration with logging software like AALog is facilitated through double-click word transfer, and transceiver frequency control is possible via the Omni-Rig interface, allowing for automatic tuning of the radio's VFO or RIT. The multi-channel decoder feature can simultaneously decode up to five strong signals within a 1600 Hz bandwidth, displayed in a separate Multi-RX Window with an adjustable squelch. CwGet also offers the capability to decode signals from pre-recorded WAVE files and can function as a narrow-band sound DSP filter for aural decoding. Configuration options are saved to an INI file, supporting multiple setups for different operating scenarios.

CW Decoder provides a robust solution for amateur radio operators aiming to decode Morse code directly on their computer. The software processes incoming audio, presenting the decoded CW as text on the screen, which can be particularly useful during crowded band conditions or for those refining their copying skills. Additionally, it offers the capability to generate a sidetone, allowing operators to monitor the decoded audio in real-time. The application features a **spectrum display** of the audio input, complete with a sliding cursor. This visual aid enables precise selection of a specific audio frequency for decoding, helping to isolate desired signals from QRM. My field experience with similar decoders confirms that a clear visual representation of the signal greatly improves decoding accuracy, especially when dealing with weak signals or multiple stations. Beyond decoding, the program integrates a **keying function**, allowing users to transmit CW directly from their keyboard. This feature supports full CW break-in operation, which is essential for efficient contesting and DXing, providing immediate switching between transmit and receive modes without manual intervention.

MultiKeyer is a dedicated computer keying program designed for amateur radio operators engaging in specialized operating activities such as Earth-Moon-Earth (EME) and Meteor Scatter, as well as general contest operations. It provides distinct modes for both CW and Phone transmissions, enabling automated message sequencing and playback of pre-recorded audio files. The software's interface shares a similar "look and feel" to the popular WSJT Meteor Scatter/EME program, facilitating ease of use for operators familiar with that platform. For CW operations, MultiKeyer offers an EME Auto mode for sending timed messages crucial for EME and Meteor Scatter, alongside a Contest mode that handles automatic CQ calls and preprogrammed messages. On the Phone side, it features a Sequenced Phone mode for transmitting prerecorded .wav files during Meteor Scatter events and an Auto Phone mode for contest use. The program leverages serial COM ports for CW and PTT signaling, and the soundcard for .wav file playback, with configurable PTT interrupt options. MultiKeyer integrates with TRX-Manager for PTT and CW keying, and can send callsigns for logging. It also supports WSJT-style "callsign.txt" files for lookups and adheres to the SO2R protocol for parallel port connections. Designed for Windows 98 and NT, it generally functions on Windows 95, ME, XP, and 2000, requiring a 133 MHz Pentium-class processor.

The _Touch CPO_ circuit offers a unique method for Morse Code practice, eliminating the need for a physical key. It leverages the versatile IC555 timer, configured as an astable multivibrator, to generate an audio tone. Users can adjust the tone's frequency by manipulating a 100 K variable resistor connected between pins 7 and 6 of the IC555, providing flexibility in the practice experience. Volume control is achieved via a 10 K variable resistor, while a 1 K Ohms preset at pin 4 of the IC555 allows for fine-tuning the touch plate's sensitivity. The design connects the touch plate to the base of a BC147B transistor, a configuration noted for its flexibility regarding the length of wire between the transistor and the touch plate. The author's prototype successfully used a 9 cm wire with a 3 x 6 cm aluminum plate. This project also suggests an alternative application as a touch-operated doorbell, demonstrating the circuit's adaptability. The design emphasizes simplicity and ease of construction, making it accessible for hams interested in DIY electronics.
