Mike,
You could try changing the decoder threshold. See "CW Decode Tips" in
the manual (page 31). "Adjust the threshold so that the CWT bar flashes
in sync with the received CW signal".
A threshold setting of 3 is pretty low and may attempt to decode noise
unless you have a very low ambient noise location.

Good afternoon, during the CQ CW contest the other weekend I used the CW
decoder for the woodpecker code speed. I did notice it was picking up a ton of
noise and trying to decode it. Is there a setting that reduces the pickup of
static noise that is being converted into nonsense letters. My settings at the
time were 250Hz filter and threshold was at 3 under decode settings and speed
was at 5-40 wpm.
