Default CW Code Reader recommendation

I am interested in the MFJ 464 and was wondering what you all thought of
it. I've been wanting to get back into CW this winter and thought this
might help. Is there any other brand reader out there that is any good?
Thanks for your help.


Best solution? Turn on your radio and actually copy code with pencil and paper.

The code reader is fair with machine generated code in a clear channel
situation. It is poor with human controlled character timing and QRM and QRN.

I don't think I could learn to copy CW by watching a small LCD!
