Hello Robert ...

It's been my experience that ... for the most part ... hand-sent 
CW isn't good enough to be decoded by automated methods.

Of course, you still might have something mis-adjusted, but
I wouldn't expect great results ... from -any- reader.  I've casually 
tried reading CW with the K3 and it does about as well as I'd 
expect, which isn't very well.

You might try it on the W1AW code practice broadcasts, as
they're computer generated.  It should do as good as it's going
to do there.
