<p>For those interested in Linux, I found a nice soft, very similar to CTyper.</p>
<p>Try "<strong>Fl_winkey</strong>" which is a standalone part of FLdigi.</p>
<p></p>
<p>It is very nice and more flexible than the very small interface you could find in CQRlog.</p>
<p>Now I use it for all my CW sessions, and I see what I'm sending, which is nice to make progress in sending ability.</p>
<p>But, no, I did not install full FLdigi, so I cannot decode what I receive...other wise it would not be CW,…</p>

<p>Nice CW to all.</p>

<p>~@ Brett Miller,</p>
<p></p>
<p>You're right./ I discovered very recently the pleasure to manipulate with a single lever (a Begali HST has been lent to me by F6FLF) and I feel releaved, and making progress!</p>
<p></p>
<p>I never mastered Iambic, and A or B mode are prone to errors if you barely touch the paddle!! I use HST in Ultimatic mode, and I'm delighted.</p>

<p>Hi all,</p>
<p></p>
<p>I recently discovered this nice little soft from W6DZ.</p>
<p>It's very useful to improve your skills, as you can see what you manipulate.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Something lacking is the list of available characters. I found , and . and ? and " but not the others (/ for instance) or the pro-signs. Also, being french (nobody's perfect!!) I'd like to add letters with accent.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Any idea??</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>Gerard (or Gérard??)</p>

<p>I saw a Winkeyer on ebay recently and thought about trying it out, but couldn't tell from the documentation whether or not it could be used with a keyboard, so I let it go. I currently use a W5UXH keyer (one of Chuck's old ones from 2002) and I really like it a lot, but I am always collecting new keys and keyers to try out, and am always game to try something new. Thanks for the tips Joe!!! </p>

<p>I've logged a lot of hours on the Bencher By-1 myself, but lately am entertaining this theory that the simplicity of single lever action will improve my error rate in time. I am sick of worrying about mode B vs. mode A timing, and also I have this problem where at the last minute I will have trouble deciding whether to squeeze or not to squeeze. It's probably uniquely my problem, but its annoying. I just bought what I think is the nicest single lever made, so assuming it's adjusted right, any mistakes in sending are for sure my own fault. Now I can just work on improving my accuracy without any interference from the key.</p>
