Morse code a heliograph, a common flashlight, or even a car horn. Some mine rescues have used pulling on a rope - a short pull for a dot and a long pull for a dash. Morse code is transmitted using just two states (on and off). Historians have called it the first digital code. Morse code may be represented as a binary code, and that is what telegraph operators do when transmitting messages. Working from the above ITU definition and further defining a bit as a dot time, a Morse code sequence may be made from a combination of the following five-bit
Morse code abbreviations only. To station S1 from station S2. Roger (R) Thank you (TU) see you again (CUAGN) Best regards (73) To station S1 from station S2: Signing off. In International Morse code there is no "distinct" dot-dash sequence defined only for the mathematical equal sign [=]; rather the same code ("–···–" or "dah di di di dah") is shared by "double hyphen" [=] and the procedural sign for "section separator" notated as . It is fairly common in the "Recommended International Morse Code" for punctuation codes to be shared with prosigns. For example, the code for plus or cross [+] is
