QRQ(1) User Manuals QRQ(1)NAMEqrq - High speed Morse telegraphy trainer
SYNOPSISqrq
qrqscore [OPTION]
DESCRIPTIONqrq is an open source Morse code trainer for various platforms and
operating systems, similar to the classic DOS version of Rufz by DL4MM.
It's not intended for learning telegraphy (have a look at
http://radio.linux.org.au/ for CW learning software), but to improve
the ability to copy callsigns at high speeds, as needed for example for
contesting.
After starting the software and setting up the parameters (speed, CW
waveform...), the program sends 50 amateur radio callsigns. When enter‐
ing a copied callsign correctly, the speed increases, otherwise it
decreases. Points are awarded for correctly copied callsigns, depending
on the speed.
A scoreboard/toplist exists on the author's website, at
http://fkurz.net/ham/qrqtop.php. The local toplist file can be synchro‐
nized with the online toplist with qrqscore -d and you can upload your
own top scores by invoking qrqscore -u.
FILES
qrqrc
Default configuration file
callbase.qcb
Database of amateur radio callsigns used by qrq. Other files may
be loaded.
toplist
Default toplist file
qrq is looking for these files in the current directory, in ~/.qrq/ or
in DESTDIR/share/qrq/ (in that order). In the latter case, ~/.qrq/ is
created, for an user-specific toplist and configuration.
