Of the two Fldigi seems to do a very slightly better job decoding CW, but other than that the digital capabilities of both seem about the same.įldigi is fairly barebones, with minimal logging capabilities, but it works very well indeed, isn't too hard to set up, and is fairly easy to learn to use. I haven't noticed any differences in decoding/coding. Both seem about equal when it comes to dealing with a variety of different digital modes.

I think you will find it comes down to personal choice once you spend some hours operating and trying different configuration.Ĭlick to expand.I've used two different digital software packages, Fldigi and HRD.

If there is some activity then the computer comes on and control and operation switches to that. Its nice to be able to sit down, turn the radio on and tune around to see if anything is active. The contacts can be easily import to my HRD log. Strictly for contest and not general logging. It free and great support by an number of programmers that are serious contesters.

Recently I have tried N1MM+ program for operating in contests. Depending on the function it can be a one button click on the radio control panel of HRD. Some functions on radio can be buried in a menu and take several button pushes to get to. I use HRD as it has a nice collection of programs that work together. Many tuning knobs now days are optical/magnetic without any significant mechanics other than the shaft and bearing in the front panel. Better chance that the finger part will get bumped, tweaked, or blunt object harmed in some way effecting the internals and requiring replacement. Depending on construction the wiping action of switching keeps the contacts 'refreshed'. Not to worry on the mechanics of the controls.

They are all free to download (HRD V6.x has a trial period) and they will all work with the same interface. I suggest that you just try them and see which one you like best. That setup does a better job at decoding CW than all of the others. The interface is the filter between the rig and the computer.

But I have an old home brew hardware interface that works through a serial port to a program written in C. Those seem to have better algorithms and can decode a little better. Again, HRD does a good job, but there are some applications that are specific to CW, like EhoCW and Cwlab. I have found that the CW decoding capability is better with some software. So it really comes down to, what features do you like. The new version (6.x) is licensed, but the old free versions (5.x) are still available. Whereas, HRD has rig control, logging, multiple mode capability (DM780), propagation information, etc.

For example, Digipan is good but only has PSK capabilities. IMHO, the big difference between the software is features. If you can get to the waterfall without too much noise, any of them will do a fair job of decoding. Weak signal handling is really up to your receiver. For PSK, I haven't found that one software does any better than another.
