  2. Make a couple of corrections and improvements to QSO test

    Thank you for providing the CW practice software on your web site and for iOS devices. I use it on my iPad, iPhone and MacBook frequently. I noticed a couple of things in the sample QSO tests on your web site that you may want to take a look at.
    1. The grading won't accept two letter state abbreviations in answers, or even a one letter difference in the spelled out form. For example, both "MA" and "Massachussetts" are marked wrong for "Massachusetts". While this is literally correct, it doesn't give credit to someone who clearly understood what the state was.
    2. In the QSO below (pasted from your web site) the grading claims the weather report was "damp and foggy" when the word damp was never sent:

    vvv vvv vvv n3nug/0 n3nug/0 de ke1po ke1po = fb es tnx fer call kevin = my name is norma = ur rst 547 547 = rig here is a yaesu ft1000mp 100 watts = the ant is an inverted v = our qth is boston, massachusetts = weather hr is foggy, temp is 27 f = ham since 1976 = here im a biochemist = i have to shut down now kevin, 73 es gud dx = n3nug/0 de ke1po sk kn

    ...
    9 How did the sender describe the weather?
    Your Answer: foggy
    Correct answer: damp and foggy
    Result: Wrong


    1. A similar problem happened with an antenna question. The QSO said "= im using a beam =" but the quiz expected "hy gain beam" for the answer, even though "hy gain" never appeared in the QSO text.

    Thanks again for some great software.

    73,

  3. General test error

    The answer for question G4E07 should be "Vehicle control computer" not "all of the above"

  4. Great tool! To make it better, I'd like to be able to concentrate on one subelement at a time.

    I like to study one sub-element area at a time, and then test it.

  9. Practicing. The morse code

    a practice should run as follows: short common word practice (already out there)
    But allow for immediate checking - immediate checking is important so as not repeat
    And reinforce a mistake: e.g. The short most common words I saw on another site
    BUT SHOW THE WORD IMMEDIATELY 3 or four letter ( chuckle)- youtube allows a person to push back the red line to the beginning for immediate repetition -SO AS
    NOT. TO REINFORCE A MISTAKE if you happen to get money out of this give it to
    the vets who have lost their legs etc.

  10. Have the software at the end of a practice test give the percentage like a real test.

    Hello there. I'm a ham who stumbled on your site quite by accident when I wanted to take the tech practice tests just to see if I remember anything after 4 years of not using my license. I love the site. it's way way easier to use then QRZ. I should also mention that I'm a blind ham. May I make a small suggestion? I love the way the test is layer out. Its very very easy to navigate and use. How ever at the end would it be possible for the software to calculate the percentage so that you can know with out looking at the results if you passed or failed the practice test? I might be a tech out of practice and refreshing my skills as a ham operator I will even recommend this wonderful site to the blind as this site is just wonderful to use.

    I hope you are well.

    Take care and 73.

  15. General 2019+ Study Guide Feedback

    On the General 2019+ study guide, I have seen conflicting information concerning Question G1E08, whereby the question reads "What is the maximum PEP output allowed for spread spectrum transmissions?" vs. "When using modified commercial Wi-Fi equipment to construct an Amateur Radio Emergency Data Network (AREDN), what is the maximum allowed PEP transmitter output power?" The answer to either question is 10 Watts. Does G1E08 need to be updated in the study questions?
