About

Two stations calling together is one thing. What about four, six or ten? Practise pulling callsigns out of a CW pileup. Choose one to ten callers and set the base WPM. Stations differ in pitch, speed and signal strength. Add different fists, chirp, key clicks, hum and QSB. Headphones let you use binaural stereo to separate the callers. Type a callsign and press Enter. Get it right and that station stops repeating, leaving you to work the others. Review copied and missed callsigns after the run. Challenge points reflect the difficulty of the signals. Settings and personal bests stay on your device. Online leaderboards are optional: post a score under your callsign if you want to compare results. Practice works offline on iPhone and iPad. This is a receiving exercise with generated audio and typed answers. No rig, microphone, paddle or extra hardware needed. There is no OpenShack Box input. Sound uses media volume and plays in Silent Mode. Practice stops when you leave the app or lock the screen. Internet is needed for online scores and help links. English interface. No account, ads, subscription or in-app purchases. By DL2CC / OpenShack.Read more
