Morse Code

Morse Code provides a letter-based method of communication by means of any type of signal that can be switched on and off ... light, sound, etc. As such, it can accomodate messages in any language that uses the familiar Roman (English) alphabet. While using the simplest possible transmitting and receiving equipment, it is highly immune to noise, and can succeed over very noisy 'channels'.

Morse Code is sometimes written with a slash between letters to avoid getting the letters confused. A double slash means a space between words.

In 1929, Ted McElroy set a record of 75.2 words per minute.

make up a really long word and wright it down and hide it

Single dash = the letter ' T '.

Absolutely! My dad was a ham operator for many years and a military radio operator during WWII. Some years ago he sent me a copy of an article (going by memory here) written by a WWII German military radio operator. The German radio "op" detailed his role in passing a Morse code message to Allied forces requesting that they not bomb a certain ship in a particular harbor since it held Allied prisoners of war. The writer reported that when the Germans later surrendered, the Allied commander thanked the German commander for informing them and saving the lives of the Allied troops.

Morse code was heavily used for military radio communication on both sides during WWII. German made WWII military surplus telegraph keys (used for sending Morse code) are considered to be very good quality and are still in use by ham radio operators in many countries.

The US Navy still uses morse code via signal lamps during periods of radio silence. It is all but impossible for an enemy to intercept it.

"Nikki" translates to "-. .. -.- -.- .." in Morse.

"Luna" translates to ".-.. ..- -. .-" in Morse.

Put the two together to get the name of the artist, Nikki Luna, "-. .. -.- -.- .. / .-.. ..- -. .-" in Morse. The slash (/) represents a space between words.

As far as I know, American Morse is not used commercially anywhere any more. The equipment may be found in various tourist places like steam railroads or Civil War displays. This code is enjoying somewhat of a resurgence among communications enthusiasts lately however. There is software available on line which even duplicates the original sounds on their PCs.

E in international Morse code (please note there are 3 kinds of Morse code) is the simplest of all Morse code letters, as it is the most common letter in English. It would just be a simple dot:

Any good, big dictionary, and any encyclopedia, should have the chart listing the Morse Code for
every letter, numeral, and punctuation.

If those fail, an old Boy Scout Handbook is guaranteed to have it.

Both are systems for data/signal transmissions. Morse code uses dashes and dots (long and short pulses), while computers use ones and zeros (on and off/something and nothing) to transmit data. Both are binary.

Many people in the military used Morse code. Morse code is a type of communication that everyone else could not understand.
