The sBitx performance above was seen with the 64 bit code. A lot of work went into making it work well. Someone will have to repeat that effort or just use the developed code.
Also, the Pi 4B

Re: CW straight key sBitx and zBitx
So it looks like the workaround is to just send a dit before you get going; and set the delay long enough so that it holds in. You¡¯re going to have to basically make it hold in for your entire

See the first post for waveform at about 15 wpm with delay 50 and post 117502 for the same speed with delay 600.

Re: CW straight key sBitx and zBitx
zBitx 40 wpm, 150 delay. again looks reasonable except for first dit.

Looks like a drum line - or a bug operator with Great Lakes Swing..............................fortunately, I stay about 20-25, but I can see this as a potential issue.?

Thanks Gordon
I used the same setup for both the sBitx and the zBitx. Same dummy load, receive antenna, K3, Audacity and Python program. The first excellent results posted in the first post were from

CW straight key sBitx and zBitx
I have been working with Mike Johnshoy, KB2ML, on the sBitx 64 bit development. For straight keying I use a test setup of the DUT transmitting at low power into a dummy load with another receiver (K3)
