## Features
Below, you will find a list of features of the current KochMorse release. The highlighted features
are new features compared to the "old" python implementation.

* *A simplified GUI* -- All settings are now accessible via the Preferences dialog.
* A morse tutor using the Koch method (of course).
* *A random morse tutor* -- Allows to select a set of characters and prosigns for practicing.
* *A QSO tutor* -- Generates a random QSO text so you can practice reading typical QSOs.

* Different speed of characters and pauses. This allows to practice the reading in full speed,
while having enough time to write the character down.
* *Different tones for dashes and dots.*

* Fading audio effect -- Periodically fades the morse signal for practicing. In conjecture with
the noise effect, it simulates the conditions on HF bands pretty well.
