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.
