I concur with Mike's evaluation. 4.48 is much more robust than 4.51 as far as CW Decode is concerned.
Some things you may want to try to improve the S/N ratio and thus make the decoder more effective. 1)Turn the AGC off and reduce the RF Gain (Be careful here and drop the AF Gain or you might get a "crash" in the audio. I have AF LIM set to 26 to protect my audio amp.) 2)Narrow the bandwidth. I often use my 400Hz roofing filter and then use the width control all the way down to 100Hz. Using these methods I was able to copy stations that were not discernible on the P3. It is a trick from the old days before product detectors etc. but I find it still works. 73s Jim, W4ATK On May 26, 2012, at 7:07 AM, Mike Harris wrote: > This could be related to the reported problem with the CWT function > previously reported and under investigation.
