[hpsdr] Morse transcription project

[Rob Frohne]

Hi Chris,

I have such a project already started (GPL).  The first version works, 
but it isn't optimized.  I called it CW-Robot.  It uses the FFT to break 
the SDR bandwidth down into smaller subbands which it decodes the 
signals in.  I really want to change the demodulator into a more matched 
filter detector, and have figured out how to do this, but haven't coded 
it.  Perhaps you would like to join forces with me and make this project 
into something.  The code is and a paper I presented at the DCC this 
year is available at:

http://people.wallawalla.edu/~Rob.Frohne/CW-Robot/

There is another paper I wrote last year for the DCC that explains the 
matched filter and a Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) detector work.

73,
