RSCW demonstrates a Linux/Unix command-line utility engineered for **Morse code** decoding via a computer's sound card. It specifically targets the extraction of weak CW signals from noise, operating on 8-bit, 8000 samples/second audio input, typically from `/dev/dsp`. The program outputs decoded characters to `stdout`, supporting user-specified speeds in words per minute (WPM) and carrier frequencies. While effective for machine-sent signals, it exhibits a 2-second decoding lag and requires manual speed input, making it less suitable for general-purpose, real-time contest operation. The resource details the program's components, including `rscw` (the main decoder), `rscwx` (an X11 graphical auxiliary for spectrum and internal signal visualization), `rs12tlmdec` (a specialized decoder for RS-12 amateur radio satellite telemetry), and `noisycw` (a utility for generating noisy Morse signals for testing). Installation instructions involve downloading a `.tgz` file, compiling with `Make`, and requiring the FFTW library (and GTK 2.0 for `rscwx`). Performance is illustrated with a .wav file example of a 12 WPM, 800 Hz CW signal at 12 dB Eb/N0, showcasing RSCW's near-error-free decoding of a test message. The site provides command-line examples utilizing `sox` for audio conversion and `noisycw` for signal generation, inviting comparisons with other decoding software and human operators, particularly for weak signal conditions.
