HI Joe<br />
<br />
CWtype under windows may act up a bit under QRQ CW sending stress...<br />
One thing I have tried that has worked - is to set the "SET PRIORITY" under the WINDOWS TASK MANAGER/PROCESSES/CWTYPE by right clicking on CWTYPE and then select "set priority" and then select "high"<br />
This will let CWtype have more CPU TIME and might help with the issue ...<br />
<br />
If that does not work<br />
try the windows version of FLdigi.... <a href="http://www.w1hkj.com/Fldigi.html">http://www.w1hkj.com/Fldigi.html</a><br />

I am preparing a VIDEO on how to use FLdigi to send text files.<br />
FLdigi is by far one of the best sounding cw sending programs I have ever used.<br />
The timing is perfect, the tone is incredible, and you can adjust weight, dot/dash/ and even the cw note rise/fall time to suit your particular QRQ CW copy preferences.<br />
It is very easy to get FLdigi to send a text file for QRQ CW practice. You can also adjust the cw parameters while the file is being sent so you can "dial in" to your heart's content the "perfect" settings in order to enable optimum copy comprehension...<br />
<br />
Stay tuned ...for USING FLdigi to send a cw text file video...<br />

Bob... I have been fiddling with CWtype program trying to generate high speed code practice using text I copy from articles, etc. I have been starting at 50 wpm but the cw sounds choppy and there are 'breaks' so the cw I hear is not smooth. How did you set up the program? Any hints or suggestions?... Joe KH6/W3GW

Great interview. My hat is off to you, Bob. I finally got my Apple IIgs and old Mfj 1278 data controller working. Amazing really since both pieces of equipment have been in boxes in the garage for years!<br />
The next step is to hook it up to my old Ten Tec Omni D. I agree with Bob that the older Ten Tec gear is hard to beat for CW. I will let you know how the Apple IIgs, Mfj 1278 and Omni D combo does when I get a little free time to fiddle with it. If all goes well, all I will need is sunspots!...…

Bob is one of the hardest working QRQ operators I have ever met. He underestimates his potential in getting faster and faster in QRQ, but with his constant practice he will certainly continue to improve. My hat is off to Bob. -Fred
