Morse Code Training - Ditto CW Player by WB1LLY

Hello,

recently I updated my page on Morse Code training

https://www.qsl.net/df7tv/morse-code-training.html

A major change has been, that I now use

Ditto CW Player

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.billyfrancisco.di...

by Billy Francisco, WB1LLY - an outstanding Android App tor trainng

to copy Morse Code. With its raised cosine shape and settable rise/fall times of CW elements

it provides a real listening pleasure.

I also find that the "G..." files of my archive of text-files are very efficient to train new words using this app.

Well the "G" files mentioned in my first mail are no longer part of my training and no longer part of my repository

https://www.qsl.net/df7tv/download/DF7TV-Randomized-Lists-of-Common...

But I am still using WB1LLY's nice Ditto CW Player (I love its sound) for training receiving using the "A" and "K" files of my repository.

At present it is the "A16" -- 1600 most common words and the "K07" -- words of a length of 3 to seven letters (1993 words) I am training with.

Progress is slow, but constant (!), and my latest QSOs have been at a maximum speed of 42 wpm.

I hope to get to 45 wpm QSOs by the end of this year (2023).

Hello,

recently I've added words from the TOEIC Service list TSL (TOEIC: Test of English for International Communication) to my repository. Using the "B..." files, you may now train receiving(reading) code with up to 4000 common English words.

Alternatives to WB1LLY's Ditto CW Player:

The Android App Claus' Morse Trainer by Claus Niesen, AE0S, is an alternative to Ditto CW Player. Copy the files "A...", "B..." and "K..." to Claus' Morse Trainer's installation folder. https://github.com/cniesen/morsetrainer#claus-morse-trainer

Stephen C. Phillips' online Word List Trainer works with most browsers and is a device-independent alternative. Just upload one of the files "A...", "B..." or "K..." for training and save your settings. https://morsecode.world/international/trainer/words.html
