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.

The site showcases a 24 GHz transverter and a more recent 47 GHz transverter, demonstrating practical construction techniques for extreme high-frequency operation. These projects often involve custom circuit design and careful component selection to achieve stable performance at millimeter-wave bands. Key projects include a _harmonic converter_ for frequency measurement and a tracking spectrum analyzer, essential tools for microwave experimenters. The site also documents a CW sidetone generator and a TX/RX sequencer, illustrating fundamental building blocks for radio equipment. Details on a digital frequency meter and an S-meter/dBm meter provide insights into test equipment construction. Specific achievements, such as a **24 GHz** tropo QSO with DK3SE in 2021, highlight the operational success of these homebrewed systems. The content reflects a long-standing dedication to self-sufficiency in amateur radio, providing practical examples for those interested in building their own gear.

Generating Morse code audio files from text input is the primary function of _MorseGen v1.2_, a utility designed for amateur radio operators. The software allows users to specify the tone frequency and words-per-minute (WPM) speed for the generated CW. A key feature is its ability to create a WAVE audio file containing the Morse code, which can then be used in various applications. The program also supports repeating the generated CW sequence at user-defined intervals, making it particularly useful for creating station identification signals or beacons. The practical application of this tool extends to automated station identification, especially for repeaters or digital mode gateways that require a CW ident. By producing a standard _WAVE file_, the output is compatible with most audio playback systems and software. This functionality provides a straightforward method for integrating custom Morse code messages into existing amateur radio setups, eliminating the need for external hardware keyers for simple identification tasks. The adjustable parameters offer flexibility to match specific operational requirements or personal preferences for CW characteristics.

The m0xpd keyer project utilizes a PIC16F628A microcontroller, offering Iambic A and B modes, adjustable speed from 5 to 40 WPM, and variable weight control. It incorporates a sidetone generator with adjustable frequency and volume, along with a PTT output for transceiver control. The design includes a 16-pin DIL IC socket for the PIC, a 3.5mm stereo jack for the paddle, and a 3.5mm mono jack for the PTT output. Powering the keyer requires a 9V DC supply, which is regulated down to 5V for the PIC. The circuit board layout is designed for through-hole components, facilitating home construction. A detailed schematic and a parts list are provided, guiding builders through the assembly process. The project also discusses the firmware programming for the PIC16F628A, essential for the keyer's functionality. Construction details cover component placement and wiring, ensuring proper operation. The keyer's compact size makes it suitable for portable or shack use, providing a reliable CW interface.
