MCT-73 Morse Code Trainer Kit

This is a kit for building the MCT-73 Morse Code Trainer.

It's small (4¾" x 3¾" x 1½") and housed in a beautiful aluminum alloy case. With its onboard speaker and included earphones, you'll be able to easily practice anywhere. Supply your own paddles or straight key and you'll be able to learn how to send Morse code too. An integrated red LED lamp gives visual feedback as you send and receive code as well. Because the MCT-73 uses a dedicated microcontroller, you'll be able to learn Morse code in a virtually lag-free environment unlike most web, computer, and smartphone training apps.

The MCT-73 is a microcontroller-based kit that includes a custom circuit board, faceplate, enclosure, earphones, and all parts needed to assemble the kit. A keyer is not included. Check out the keyers from CW Morse. They are a great value and like us, they're a small family-run business.

This is an intermediate level kit and requires basic soldering skills. It is designed to be built with a minimum of fuss. Built from all through-hole parts and using a custom-designed circuit board to give a little breathing room between components, it's meant to keep assembly as easy as possible.

Assembly requires (not included) a soldering iron, solder, wire cutters, wire strippers, a small Phillips screwdriver, a keyer, and a 9 volt battery.
