What is Morse Code Reader?

Morse code is old fashined way of sending message using dots and dashed named after Samuel Morse who invented it back in the 1830 along with Alfred Vail.

Like, the letter "E" is just one quick dot (-), "T" is one long dash (-), and the famous SOS is ··· −−− ··· (three quick, three long, three quick). People still use it today-ham radio nerds love it, pilots hear it from some navigation beacons, and it is great in emergencies because you can send it with a flashlight, by tapping on a pipe, whatever.

Morse code is usually transmitted by on-off keying of an information-carrying medium such as electric current, radio waves, visible light, or sound waves. Learn more about Morse code on wikipedia.

How Morse Code Works?

Morse code is just a way to send letters using only short and long beeps (or flashes). Short = dot (·), long = dash (−). That is it. Only two sounds for the whole alphabet!

These codes have some basic rules:

Speed starts at 5 words per minute (super slow and clear) and crazy people go 40+ wpm where it sounds like a bee, but beginners stick to 10-15 and it's totally fine. That is literally all you need to start! I went from 'this is impossible' to sending my name in like 20 minutes. Try it it is weirdly fun once you hear the rhythm.
