About the application:

This apk will train you to hear and send Morse code at 20 WPM using an approach very related to the Koch way. In this apk you learn first the vowels, starting with "a", then alphabetically the letters and ordinally the numbers. As you gain more experience copying Morse code, you will start to recognize short strings of heroes such as "CQ", "73", "Tu", "Tnx", "HiHi", "599", "Wx", and the numerous Q-codes and CW prosigns. This apk may be of interest to amateur ham radio QRP and QRO operators, CW or telegraph enthusiasts, and shortwave listeners who want to copy CW Morse code QSOs. Also accessible here on Google Play are 10, 15, 25, and 30 WPM versions of this app. For learning the sounds of the heroes you are presented with a game-like interface using a QWERTY keypad or the Default keypad, depending upon your choice. A hero is played in Morse code, and you must tap the matching hero on the keypad. Note that only the heroes you have learned will be enabled. The mini game is very simple at first as you only have the letter "a" accessible to tap, but it quickly gets interesting as you progress and learn more heroes. Once you gain 90% proficiency within a hero set, a fresh hero is introduced. Press and keep any alphanumeric key to hear that hero in Morse code without registering a hit or miss. Tap the really big Check or X just above the keypad to show/hide the current hero. Tap and keep to see your stats. A related interface is provided for Numbers, Prosigns, and CW abbreviations, both RX and TX. Once in one of these 3 modes you may toggle between them without returning to the main menu. Note that when you change modes your current hits and misses for that mode will be restart to 0, but overall statistics are not affected. Remember that Prosigns are sent run-on without regard to hero spacing, while Abbreviations adhere to proper CW spacing. The Copy Pad is for copying strings of heroes by drawing with your finger on the white canvas. You are presented with a group of random heroes composed of only the heroes already learned, and you can then write down the heroes as you recognize them. After 3 seconds, the group of heroes is displayed, the Copy Pad is cleared, and a fresh hero set is presented. You have the option to select the word size from 1 to 10 heroes. The Copy Pad works best with shorter strings. For longer strings, pen and paper are more practical. Please note: the Copy Pad DOES NOT attempt to recognize your handwriting. This apk also contains a straight key transmit feature. A hero is played in Morse code, and you must tap out that hero with the code key. You need not send at 20 WPM and could use a speed that is comfortable. For sending quick code, an iambic key is helpful. You can select to see the code you are tapping out or the heroes you have learned. You may also turn the sound of the heroes off. Additionally, you may replace the straight key photo with the International Morse code chart. Tap and keep the really big Check or X just above the straight key to see your stats. You may use a true straight key with this apk by connecting it to your Android device device via an easily repurposed USB mouse: http://www.kg9e.net/apps/AmateurHamRadioPracticeKeys/StraightKeyUSBMouse.pdf
