"CT MODOKI" runs under the same configuration that you run CT, although EMS is
not required.
1. Unarchive "CTM135.LZH" using LHA. Old LHarc might not work.
Then you will get ;
CWCT.EXE
PROPA.DAT
CWCT.DOC (This document) ***(THIS HAS BEEN DONE FOR YOU)***
You must put CWCT.EXE and PROPA.DAT into the same directory.
2. Type : CWCT [Enter]
3. You are prompted to enter ;
Callsign
Zone Number
WPM
UTC - 1 or 2 digit(s)
"WPM" is not really WPM. For my experience with 386SX/20MHz TOSHIBA, you
should set WPM around 20, about 1.5 time faster. With 486DX/33MHz it's
twice. And, be careful, you will be called at "AROUND" your speed ...
Usually most of them are slower than you when you set it at 36 WPM+, but in
this case, more than half of them are NOT slower than you at ANY speed.
NOTE: I had to set mine at 10 wpm ! 286/12mhz.....The speed vary from 10 to 30 WPM.At this speed I ran 160 Qso's in a hour !! NO ANTENNAS OR QRM....de Kyle WA4PGM .....1/93 Great PGM !!
(N2KW set speed to 22 WPM for best rate on his 8088 machine)
4. The screen is changed and the program is started.
5. When you get correct, the program counts your score.
6. You must copy both Callsign and Number. "___?__" will be displayed when
you get only Callsign correct. It is not count for the score.

[Miscellaneous]
1. While speaker beeps, what you type will not come on the screen. But don't
worry, your key-in stored in the keyboard buffer will come up when beeps
are over.
Kenny is going to fix this problem, but not yet. Consider, This program is
just for fun and he is not a professional programmer, must be so called
"AMAGRAMMER." (Versus "PRO^2GRAMMER", Hi)
2. Some stations might have unfamiliar callsigns which are not really exist,
but don't worry (Just don't worry.)
3. Band is fixed on 20m. You can not change it (Although the original
propagation data is of on 15m.)
4. Figures in the Summary Window :
Q - QSOs
D - Miss Copies
SCORE - Complete QSO rate (percentage)
Real score is not displayed.
Countries are not completely correct. Just don't take it serious.
5. "CT MODOKI" shows you MAX rate, callsigns & numbers you didn't get correct
when you quit.
RST check function is not included. Correct number is displayed like
"5NN25". This means you didn't get "25" correct and no guarantee for RST.
6. "CT MODOKI" is automatically terminated when your miss-copies exceed 100.
7. Sometimes you can't change messages with Shift-F1, F2 and F3 because the
cursor doesn't move to the window. In that case, just try again.
8. Some JAs (only JA) could be portable.
9. Screen color is (mostly) monochrome. This program is made for LCD display.
