Morse Decoder

Morse Decoder decodes Morse code characters through the built-in microphone
of your Android device.Morse Decoder can be used by Ham Radio
(Amateur Radio) operators or anyone else interested in decoding Morse
code from a Radio or any other device. Morse Decoder includes a “waterfall”
to show a frequency spectrum of about 50Hz to 2300Hz. A narrow band DSP
filter can be set for the frequency of the Morse code tones by tapping the
waterfall. The DSP filter is followed by an automatic gain control (AGC)
to compensate for changing signal strengths. The detected signal will be
shown as a graph and several algorithms will then detect the speed of the
Morse code and convert them into readable text. Speeds of less than 4 Wpm
(Words per Minute) to more than 50 Wpm can be decoded. This is the
first version of Morse Decoder.It has been tested on several Android
devices and it performed very well or even better thanPC based decoding
software. However, since we are not able to test the performance on all
150+ Android devices there is the possibility that Morse Decoder
will not work on all devices. If Morse Decoder doesn’t work on your
device you can uninstall Morse Decoder within 15 Minutes for a full
refund (This is the time frame given by Google and I am not able to
change it).If the 15 minutes passed and you are not happy with
Morse Decoder email me as soon as possible . Please
include your name and the modelof your phone in the email. I will
then refund you themoney as fast as possible. It is important that you
include the model of your device. I will try to find the cause for the
malfunction or include your phone model in a list of “not working” devices.
