Replay without penalty
Press Replay as many times as you need. It repeats the exact same Morse burst without counting as a wrong answer or changing the question.
EAR PRACTICE · LISTEN, TYPE, CHECK
Morse Code Practice
Press play, listen to one short burst of Morse, and type what you think it said. Check it, then replay anything you missed. Nothing is timed against a clock, nothing is saved, and the sound only runs while you're actually practising.

Stop only silences the sound — it keeps your current question number and answered results in this round.
How a round works
- 1. Choose settings & Play.Pick a character set and speed, then press Play to hear one character burst.
- 2. Type & Check.Once the burst finishes, the input unlocks so you can type your answer and press Check.
- 3. Five questions per round.A standard round has 5 questions. Press Stop any time — Stop only silences the sound and keeps your round progress.
Choose what you hear
Select from three character tiers: Letters (A–Z), Letters + Numbers (0–9), or Letters + Numbers + Punctuation (. , ? ! ' / ( ) : ; = + "). Every question is drawn from the exact same character table used by the homepage translator — no extra symbols appear here that the translator does not handle. ASCII - is the Morse dash glyph only and is not practised as a character.
Playback speed uses the same three settings as the homepage player — 5 WPM, 10 WPM, and 20 WPM — with no custom speed slider. If you want to review the dots and dashes before starting a round, check the chart.
Replay, reveal, review
Show answer after Check
The Show answer button appears only after you submit Check, so you never reveal the character by accident before trying.
Automatic miss list
Any character you miss is added straight to the round’s miss list alongside its exact dots and dashes for review.
What you get at the end
Finishing a round gives you your round accuracy percentage, a copyable list of missed characters with their Morse patterns, and a Practise these again button that starts a focused round containing only the items you missed.
There is no ranking, no upload, and no stored history — once you close or refresh the page, the round is gone. Accuracy is kept locally in memory for the current round only.
What this page is not
- Not an amateur radio CW trainer: there is no Koch or Farnsworth curriculum structure, and no radio licensing or exam material.
- No microphone input: this page does not listen to you tapping or decode audio from your room.
- No transmit speed rating: it does not grade your keying rhythm or issue speed certificates.
- Not for emergency or safety use: built strictly for casual ear practice and word puzzles.
- No daily challenge or leaderboard: practice at your own pace without streaks, accounts, or public boards.
Getting better, honestly
- Listen to the rhythm shape.Hear each character as one sound pattern rather than trying to count individual dots and dashes.
- Get solid at 5 WPM first.Stay at 5 WPM until you can answer a full round cleanly before stepping up to 10 or 20 WPM.
- Isolate the characters you miss.Use Practise these again at the end of a round so you only repeat the symbols that tripped you up.
- Read unfamiliar symbols aloud first.Look up tricky characters on the reference table and say their short-and-long pattern out loud before testing by ear.
FAQ
If I press Stop, is my current round still there?
Yes. Pressing Stop silences the tone immediately and leaves your current question number and all answered results in the round untouched.
What does WPM mean?
WPM means words per minute — how fast the Morse burst plays. Higher numbers are faster. If the sound is hard to follow, start at 5 WPM.
Why is there no speed above 20 WPM?
This tool is designed for everyday ear recognition and puzzle practice using the same 5, 10, and 20 WPM steps as the homepage translator, rather than high-speed radio contesting.
What if what I hear does not match what I saw on the table?
Submit your guess with Check, then press Show answer or inspect the miss list to see the character alongside its exact dots and dashes, and hit Replay to compare the sound.
Are my missed questions or scores saved anywhere?
No. Scores and missed characters exist only in browser memory during your active round. Nothing is saved to storage or uploaded, and closing the page clears everything.
Can this page listen to me tapping via microphone?
No. We do not use microphone input or audio decoding — you listen to the browser-generated tone and type the matching character.
