    Why not just learn Morse code. It's not that difficult and much more fun
    than getting a computer to do it for you.

    true, it is, but when it comes over shortwave radio it comes so fast, you can't figger out what it says.

    There are standalone decoders, like the MFJ-461 "Pocket Morse Code
    Reader" (http://www.mfjenterprises.com/products.php?prodid=MFJ-461)
    and many software solutions which use the soundcard, like CWget (http://www.dxsoft.com/). The latter is probably the way to go in
    your case.

    None of those decoders will work nearly as good as a human CW
    operator though, especially at low SNRs.

    Do you know of this QSL card "UA0LH"
    It says on it

    ZONE 19 ITU 34 OBL 107

    The ship is "AKADEMIK SHIRSHOV"

    Radio officer was ALEXANDER A MARUSCHAK

    A logo on it is a world with UDXC within it.
