Subject: Re: OT: Decoding high speed CW

[Edward R Cole]

Most of my CW work is for eme where the signal is marginal "at
best".  Without having a large SNR on the signal I have not found any
CW decoder to work well (skimmer seems to be best).  On CW-eme the
output is gibberish.

Inventing a digital code designed for weak-signal is way better
solution (eg JT65) and it decodes down 10-dB weaker than most folks
can hear CW (I need another +6 dB for human CW copy).  Good CW ops
prefer CW as it is "more fun" than digital - no argument.

So, CW was designed for human decoding and that still remains the
best solution.
