DitStorm™ Cypher Universal Morse Expert

The Human Brain is amazing - Ditstorm is not

This may the ticket for those that do contesting or as an "automated" CW machine, but it fails badly at basic decoding. Over at least 30 Pota QSOs, Ragchews, and general listening, this device was able to decode only one signal - ONE. These signals ran from 569-569. Having 4 months of CW training allowed me to understand more than this software. It fails at basic decoding, which is the reason I bought. It will decode your transmission, so I use it to check my fist. And I have no response to two emails asking more tips on finetuning the software.

Overall, pretty cool!

You have to read the Operator's Manual a couple of times to get the setup correctly. Watching the YouTube videos are a must. The audio adjustment on the radio needs to be set high so as to get the level needed for a proper decoding when using the Y cable connected to the headphone jack. It would be nice if the CW paddle speeds were at 1 WPM increments. Otherwise, I really like it.

So far I love it, still getting familar with it

So far I love it, still getting familiar with it and radio connection.
