I agree.  I just installed 4.51 yesterday, but it doesn't seem to work as well 
as 4.48, even using the same settings for slope and threshold.  I will 
experiment more before I give up on 4.51, but I will probably revert back to 
the previous version.

Subject: [Elecraft] 4.48 vs 4.51 CW Decode
Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2012 10:52:26 -0500

I am saving a copy of 4.48 so I can go back to it.  

IMHO 4.51 is:
1) More difficult to use
2) Does not perform as well as 4.48
3) Lacks the weak signal performance of 4.48
4) Requires constant adjustment of the RF Gain control

This was  the absolute best CW decoder I had ever used. I am still using 4.51 
but have not yet hit the sweet spot with it. Perhaps others are having better 
results and will share AGC settings, threshold setting etc. 

I am can copy call signs, signal reports at elevated speeds, but alas I am CW 
challenged and am using CW decode to help me get over the 18 to 20 wpm block.
