Morse Code Guide
About Morse Code
- Invented by Samuel Morse in 1830s
- Used dots (.) and dashes (-) to represent letters
- Originally used for telegraph communication
- Still used in amateur radio and aviation
- International standard for emergency signals
How It Works
- Each letter has a unique dot-dash pattern
- Dots are short signals, dashes are long
- Spaces separate letters and words
- SOS (... --- ...) is the universal distress signal
- Timing: dot = 1 unit, dash = 3 units
Audio Features
- Listen to Morse code audio playback
- Adjustable speed (5-25 WPM)
- Standard timing intervals
- Learn by hearing the patterns
- Practice with audio feedback
Learning Tips
- Start with common letters (E, T, A, O)
- Practice the SOS signal first
- Use mnemonics for difficult letters
- Listen to audio while learning
- Practice short words before sentences
- Focus on rhythm and timing
