First 24H with ERA Microreader

This is a photo of the new microreader reading amateur cw yesterday. I have done a side by side
comparison with fldigi and it is just as good yet without all the hassle (not to mention noise!) of loading up the pc. I am very impressed. In fact there were digits that the fldigi program failed to copy that the microreader read OK, which surprised me, given its age.

    Looks like an interesting piece of equipment Adam. Like you write there is no computer involved. Excellent for SWL use. 73, Bas

    Hi Bas, yep it is great to be decoding immediately you hear something and with no PC noise. Heard LU2DT this afternoon and would never have managed all those letters without the Microreader! After hearing the call a few times I started to recognise the "song" of "DE" or of certain letters, so one day I may be active on QRP CW! Happy Christmas. Adam
