Hank,
I have not used FLdigi to decode CW, but cwget
(http://www.dxsoft.com/en/products/cwget/) and Writelog rttyrite (in CW
mode) both do a good job. NO software is as good as a person, but both
of the above can help a newcomer get started. Both of the above use the
rig in CW mode with the audio out to the computer sound card.

He's just learning CW, we note that FLdigi can send and decode CW.
I've used FLdigi for Hellschreiber and PSK-31, but never with trying
to decode CW under contest conditions. From what I've encountered in
MiQP and similar contests, there's seldom a condition where "good
ears" couldn't work with a recevier 2 KHz bandwidth or so, which these
software packages generally use with a rig in the SSB mode.
Has anyone had experience with using it, or another "digital" software
package, in a simple CW contest like MiQP? It would help his
multiplier count if he could make some CW contacts with an aid like
FLdigi.
Please don't "put this question down" - I'd like to encourage the
newbies to contesting to give it their all, and use all the technology
available.
