Features of Ham University
Ham University is a Windows multimedia
product that makes learning Morse code fun. You start with Lessons to learn
the characters, numbers, and punctuation-up the speed as your ability increases.
Once you have the characters down, you can practice copying real world QSO's
using the Exercise feature. You can use the built-in QSO's or send your own
text file.

FCC Questions-Quiz
Prepare for the written examination with the Quiz section of HamU. The Quiz
section lets you browse through the questions and test yourself on them. You
can select just the topics you want to work on and you can focus on just those
questions you have trouble with. Complementing this is the Exam section which
gives you a practice exam.
Lessons
The Lessons section sets up a series of lessons that introduces the code gradually
using tested educational methods. You set aside 20 minutes once or twice a day
and you work through the lessons at your own pace.
Exercises
For a less structured approach than Lessons, try the Exercises section. You
can listen to typical Morse code messages and translate them. You can set up
your own messages or try our selection-which includes several that mimic an
actual exam.
Great Game -- Pentode®
There is also a great game included! Pentode allows you to test your skill at
any level, Novice through Extra. You can play Pentode as soon as you've learned
a few characters. You can even play the game with voice instead of CW if you
want. Once you play Pentode, you won't be able to stop. While you're playing
the game, you're increasing your speed and ability to recognize characters --
it's fun to learn and play at the same time. Pentode was also part of the #1
Edutainment package of 1995 (and 1966) as judged by Consumers
Reports.
