Re: CW decoder doesn't recognize /BK?


 

Hello Willem

There isn't currently a way to add prosigns.?

The decoder currently supports 0-9, A-Z and the following prosigns and punctuation only:

Punc/Prosign? ?Displayed? Sequence??

Dash? ? ? ? ? ?/? ? ? ? ? /../.? ?Dah-dit-dit-dah-dit
Question? ? ? ??? ? ? ? ? ..//..? Dit-dit-dah-dah-dit-dit
Dot/period? ? ?.? ? ? ? ? ./././??Dit-dah-dit-dah-dit-dah
Comma? ? ? ? ? ,? ? ? ? ? //..//? Dah-dah-dit-dit-dah-dah
Break? ? ? ? ? =? ? ? ? ? /.../? ?Dah-dit-dit-dit-dah
KN? ? ? ? ? ? ?KN? ? ? ? ?/.//.? ?Dah-dit-dah-dah-dit
AR? ? ? ? ? ? ?AR? ? ? ? ?././.? ?Dit-dah-dit-dah-dit
VA? ? ? ? ? ? ?VA? ? ? ? ?..././? Dit-dit-dit-dah-dit-dah

Note that due to the contentious issue of whether Dit-dit-dit-dah-dit-dah should be called SK or VA, a switch for this is provided in the CW Decoder menu, the setting is called "SK or VA" and can be selected to be SK or VA.

I like using the QMX to practice my CW because it decodes it and shows me my errors, or for example when my pauses are too long within words. One thing I noticed is that it decodes some prosigns (like SK, KN), but not all. One that's very common is BK, especially for POTA. Not really a big deal, but I was wondering if maybe I missed something, or if there's a way to add prosigns.
