Koch Trainer 4+

This is a SUPER basic app. The user interface isn’t really what someone that ever USED it would have built. BUT it is one of the only apps in the entire store that isn’t a child’s toy. This is a genuine learning app. The most glaring omission is that it doesn’t grade your session, it will display - In A Different FONT - what it sent and what you typed. If this sounds hard to reconcile, it is!

This app seems like a beta release from someone that doesn’t really know what the app should do or how it should work. Still that does’t change the fact it is one of the VERY BEST in the entire store.

I took my ham radio exams years ago when Morse was required in order to pass, but I never used it much (lazy)! Now 30 years later I want to re-learn Morse and this is definitely the best way to do it. I want to be proficient at 13 wpm, so I am starting at 13 wpm with the “Koch speed” set to 18. Also, now in my mid 70s, I need something to keep the brain from atrophying…this is certainly doing just that. Great App!

This is a basic app to learn CW, no frills. I’ve been using this app daily for several months and so far I find it to be the best resource for learning CW.

You have the option of changing WPM, or the space between the sent letters. You can adjust the pitch of the tone as well as how many characters will be sent in a test session. You can choose the Koch method where only a few characters are added at a time. You can practice call signs, words or even qso’s.

My only complaint is that I can’t pick specific letters or characters to practice.

Other than that, this is a great app for anyone that wishes to learn CW
