[SixClub] cw on 6 meters

[Roger (K8RI) on Six]

Many years ago I picked up a solid state (all logic circuits) unit from 
W7FV.  It copied RTTY, CW and I don't remember what else.  It was about 3" 
high, maybe 14 to 16" deep and would fit a 19" rack panel.  That thing was 
almost flawless on copying CW.  It'd copy from about 2 WPM to something like 
120 WPM and it took one whale of a "Lake Eire Swing" to confuse it.  Even if 
you changed speed in mid stream it might drop one character.  For copy that 
thing was fantastic.

Unfortunately I don't remember if it was a commercial unit and if so who 
made it.  He may have assembled it himself.

I haven't found any software that comes close to it, but then again I've not 
spent enough time with any of the programs to really get proficient with 
them.

Ben--MixW is about the best software I've found, but it pales in comparison
to Wetware...the human brain does a far more reliable job of reading code.
Until computers get more advanced anyway.
