† F or simplicity, punctuation characters are referred to in this manual as prosign characters. Refer
to "Morse Code Character Set" section on page 11 for their meanings.
The Advanced sets are meant for those who want to increase code speed and are
already familiar with all the characters. The FCC Char set generates the required
characters for the FCC code exam--the 26 letters, the 10 numerals, and prosign1
character sets. The Callsigns set generates random callsigns allocated to the
United States of America. The Words set generates random words commonly
used in amateur radio from its internal database of 500 different words. The
QSOs set sends entire random QSOs (conversations between radio operators)
which is the best way to study for a license test because it is the same format as
the test!
Advanced Sets:
•
LETTERS all letters
•
NUMBERS all numbers
•
PROSIGNS all prosigns
•
LETTERS+NUMBERS all letters & all numbers
•
LETTERS+PROSIGNS all letters & all prosigns

‡ FCC testing requirement consists the 26 letters, the 10 numerals, and prosign1 set..
The Custom sets allow you extra practice on certain characters and words that
you have trouble with. Using custom words, you can practice recognizing the
entire word as a sound instead of individual letters. The procedures on how to
build and save these custom sets will be discussed later.
Custom Sets:
•
[ CST CHAR] custom characters (1 to 16 characters)
•
[ CST WORD] custom words (10 words, 1 to 16 char. per word)
