Just pay close attention to centering the signal using the CWT decode meter. I usually fine tune a little around the center of the range and find a sweet spot. I have had good results with the last few CW Contests. The last contest I showed my CW challenged brother how well the decoder works. He was truly impressed and is leaning toward a K3 for his next rig. Lately, I have set my AGC THR at 10-11 as a good point to work for all situations I encounter. Oh, also, my pitch is set either at 520 or 530 Hz usually. If you can find a station sending code practice on the air, that would be a good place to see what adjustments are needed for decoding computer generated CW and then you could go from there for not so perfect CW. ----- Roger W5RDW -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/4-48-vs-4-51-CW-Decode-tp7558336p7558349.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
