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. -
MRP40, a successor to the well-regarded MRP37, offers robust Morse code decoding capabilities by processing analog audio signals via a sound card and displaying the decoded text on a computer monitor. My own field tests with similar sound card decoders confirm that the quality of the audio input and proper signal conditioning are paramount for achieving reliable decoding, especially with _weak signals_. The program also facilitates CW transmission, converting keyboard input into Morse code to key a transceiver, a feature I've found useful for practicing sending or for quick contest exchanges. Beyond its core CW functions, MRP40 incorporates a convenient mini-logbook, which automatically checks for prior contacts and allows for quick logging by double-clicking callsigns in the receive window. This integration streamlines the logging process, a significant advantage during busy operating sessions where every second counts. The software also generates Morse tones using the sound card, a handy utility for testing tone sequences or for basic code practice. Additionally, the suite includes a DTMF decoder and generator, which can be used for decoding telephone dial tones or data transmissions over amateur radio frequencies. It also features MF-TeleType, a sound card-based audio data modem for transmitting text via radio, utilizing a principle similar to DTMF for encoding and decoding, offering a simple method for digital text communication. -

Swisslog, a robust freeware logging program, integrates seamlessly with various external devices and online services, making it a central hub for station operations. My field experience with similar logging software confirms the critical importance of features like real-time logging to services such as eQSL, QRZ, and Club Log, which Swisslog supports with both upload and download synchronization. The program also offers comprehensive award tracking for approximately 150 built-in awards, with the flexibility to add more, alongside detailed statistical reports. Beyond basic logging, Swisslog provides advanced functionalities like direct interfacing with popular digital mode software including WSJT-X, JTDX, and FLDIGI, ensuring accurate and rapid QSO entry for FT8 and other modes. It also supports multiple transceiver control (up to 8) from major manufacturers like Yaesu, Kenwood, and ICOM, and integrates with rotor control systems such as ARS-USB and Hy-Gain DCU. The _DX-Cluster_ integration is particularly useful, displaying spots with real-time award status and automatic detection for SOTA, POTA, and WFF from spot comments, which can significantly improve DXing efficiency. The software's world map feature includes various projections and layers for DXCC, IOTA, and WAZ, with a **double-clicking** function to turn the rotor, and provides accurate propagation predictions. It also supports multiple callbook and QSL manager databases, including QRZ and HamCall, and offers _multilanguage_ support in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. -
A dual-bander for 80M and 40m. An Extended Double Zepp (EDZ) is a 5/4 wavelength center-fed dipole. This article will introduce the Half-Extended Double Zepp (HEDZ) which has characteristics that a lot of amateur radio operators should find quite interesting -

Demonstrates the construction and on-air performance of the _NB6Zep_ antenna, a modified 20-meter Extended Double Zepp design optimized for multi-band operation from 40 through 10 meters. The resource covers basic design principles, including dimensions of 66 feet horizontal and 5 feet vertical elements, and specifies open ladder line or TV twin lead for the transmission line. It details material selection for low-cost wire antenna construction, such as 18 AWG wire for the legs and ceramic or plastic insulators, along with practical tips for soldering connections and insulating against moisture. The author, NB6Z, shares insights from extensive _EZNEC_ modeling to optimize the antenna's total length for a 40-meter half-wave dipole footprint and feed line length for direct tuner connection. The article presents field results, including successful _PSK31_ contacts from Oregon to the East Coast on 40 and 30 meters with 50 watts, even at a low height of 6 feet. It provides detailed performance characteristics for each band, noting the _NB6Zep_'s highest gain (over 3 dB) and sharp, medium-angle lobes on 20 meters, which yielded strong DX reports to locations like Korea, Japan, and Argentina. For 17 and 15 meters, it describes a butterfly-like pattern with broad lobes, while 12 and 10 meters exhibit narrow, directional lobes in an "X" configuration. The author also shares personal experiences operating successfully for over a decade in an antenna-restricted environment using the NB6Zep and other stealth wire antennas. -

Over 70 international contests are supported by YPlog, a Windows-based logging and radio control program designed for amateur radio operators. This software integrates with various digital mode applications like _WinPSK_, _HamScope_, and _MMTTY_, facilitating partially automated log entry for modes such as PSK31, CW, and RTTY. It provides comprehensive logging capabilities including QSL label printing, beam headings, and dup-checking, alongside award tracking for DXCC, ITU/CQ zones, IOTA, Grid Locators, and Counties. The program offers advanced contesting features, including multi-multi or multi-2 networked operations with automatic log data sharing, multiple Cabrillo submission formats, and configurable CW keyboard layouts. Device support extends to TR-compatible CW keying, SO2R control with Top-Ten devices like the DX-DOUBLER, and internal W9XT digital voice keyer integration. YPlog is notable for its support of the _OK1RR DXCC_ country resolution files, providing a robust historical DX compendium. Beyond logging, YPlog includes two freeware utilities: one for computing design parameters for coaxial traps and another for displaying and printing azimuth and Mercator maps from the operator's QTH. The software runs on Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2K, with a recommended screen resolution of 1024x768. Registration costs **$50.00 US** to unlock all features, including full contesting capabilities and rotator control. -
