[Elecraft] MRP40 CW Software SDR ver.

[Sam Morgan]

for any interested go here:
http://www.polar-electric.com/Morse/MRP40-EN/
down under *News:* it has more info on the MRP40-SDR

and even more including the download is here:

I did try it out on my K3 using a softrock to tap the IF, it worked 
fine. You must use something like a softrock to convert the K3's IF out 
to the I/Q necessary to feed the MRP-SDR software.

I have used my K3 and softrock with an on board as well as a Delta44 
sound card using Rocky software.

I have also run NaP3 using the softrock on the K3's IF out, and now 
having a P3 for the IF display. I didn't find the MRP40-SDR worth the 
$67 usd price *FOR ME*

so if you are looking for cw decoder that's one thing, if you are 
wanting it for the waterfall display, that will need a middle man 
interface, like the softrock.

However....
I do use and love the regular MRP40 Morse Code Decoder software.
I have been happy with it's performance for many years. I compared it 
with all other free and paid cw decoders and found it to be the best!

so how you want to use the MRP40-SDR and what you have to run it,
on may make it worthwhile for you....
as in ymmv <g>

you can download and try for free for 30 days
so give it a shot, see what you think.

P.S.
more on the softrock interface for a K2 can be read here:
