NuCode runs on PCs under all Microsoft operating systems from Windows 95 to Windows XP. Almost all machines will have sufficient speed, disk space and memory to run the program. Your PC must have a soundboard.

NuCode is based around a set of lessons that includes the whole Morse code alphabet and other characters. If you can successfully complete the lessons then you will ace the FCC 5WPM code test. No previous knowledge of the Morse code alphabet is assumed and you are gently introduced to a few characters to start with in the early lessons. Then you work through to the final lesson at your own pace. Right from the start you practice at your final target speed of 6 WPM with just a few initial characters. Once you have learned to reliably copy this small group of characters a few more characters are added and you will again practice until you can copy them all reliably at full speed. This process continues until you know all of the Morse code alphabet and more...at full speed! This unique code learning method was pioneered by the German psychologist Ludwig Koch.

As well as the structured lessons centered around the Morse code alphabet, NuCode offers the ability to translate plain text files into code. It will also generate random letters, numbers and punctuation if you need this. A large selection of useful text files is provided as part of the NuCode package.

A special feature of NuCode is that there is no complicated setting up process to get started. You install the program and immediately start learning code with the first lesson. Compare NuCode and other Nu-Ware code trainers here.
