Oh well, at least I know it's on the way!
Dahdidahdit, un app open source per imparare il codice Morse
Dahdidahdit è un’applicazione open source progettata per insegnare o eventualmente allenare i radioamatori nell’utilizzo del codice Morse.
I made the pre-release 1.14.0-rc1 the official release 1.14.0. It is available for side-loading from Github and should be available from F-Droid in a few days, assuming all goes according to plan.

Release notes are only shown for new release on first…
GitHubJust published pre-release 1.14.0-1 of the most awesomest Morse trainer ever, Dahdidahdit.
Please give it a try and report issues back to me, should you find any. Which you won't because it's so awesome.
New features are improved theme, improved USB paddle supporting VBand adapter, and some bugs fixed. Did I say "bugs"? I meant unwanted features.

And yes, I did have too much coffee this morning. Why you asking?
Pre-release for testing only! Do not use if you need…
GitHubJust a small teaser for the Dahdidahdit users around: I've implemented a configuration for key codes to use when connecting a Morse-key-to-USB adapter and also a configuration for keyer mode (Iambic A and B supported). Now you can also use the VBand adapter with Dahdidahdit. (The new version is yet to be released, so please be patient.)
I had a chance to get on VBAND earlier. It's fun to practice on other humans. *very* different than the perfect timing of computer generated CW.
As I tuned in, one station was trying hard and kind of melted down. I admire that strength so much! The more mistakes they made the more I wanted to cheer them along. Welcome to the journey, intrepid ham!
Priyom is an international organization intending to research and bring to light the mysterious reality of intelligence, military and diplomatic communication via shortwave radio: number stations.
And this is how it sound when you mix it all up:

CW QSO Finder:

I'm not much of a contester personally, but I have a soft spot for #SST. While it's technically a "contest", it feels more like "slow down and encourage newcomers to try #CW". The first time I ever got on the air and tried #morse was for SST a few weeks ago.
Too bad I don't have a permanent antenna install, so can rarely dive in. Maybe I'll monitor using a web SDR.
This is a long winded reminder that SST kicks off in about 2 hours.
Besides, it has the coolest sounding CQ call!

I discovered VBAND today. This is a #CW QSO over the internet website. No special software required. I'm a complete embarrassment, but it's cool that the humans on the other end are extremely patient. The "get on the air to get good" approach works for me.
If you too are thinking of jumping in to the fray and making a hash of things, highly recommended. 5 of 5 stars!
For me, who doesn't have a permanent antenna setup, this is a great way to practice.
@bcshort@aus.socialI had this delightful baby iambic key arrive this week via AliExpress. It’s not going to win any contests, but it was something affordable to dip my toes into the iambic key waters.
So far I am really impressed as it brings timing consistency to my CW where I might have been considered a bit all over the place on a straight key. Much easier on the hand too.

First #CW QSO!
Was just fumbling around the bands and stumbled on a POTA call. Curiously he's not listed in the pota app. Anyways I clearly copied his callsign, so I figured why not give it a go. All it is is trading RST and QTH.
Man that's a rush. Glad I did that so I can calm down for #SST this evening.
Never send faster than you can copy. Feel free always to 'QRS pse'. They ought to have matched you already. For all they know you might need the QRS because of noise, QSB, QRM or whatever.
Even if on a bug, they can Farnsworth slower.
I send CQ at dual speeds, third rep of KY8D sent at half speed. This as open invitation to QRS replies. How I manage that is on a cootie, sometimes switching between paddles and cootie.

I tuned in to the local VHF net this evening. All of the regional repeaters are linked, and for inexplicable reasons, they all blare their callsign in #Morse at the exact same time. This makes for a lovely melody of beeping gibberish.
This was the first time my brain reported "that was the letter C, in case you cared..." when I wasn't listening. I didn't copy the full callsign, so I'm not there yet. But that was surprising to have unconsciously linked at least some sequences to their letter.
