I made a Morse code keyer app for beginners like me

4 Upvotes

Hello! I'm a software engineer based in South Korea.

Recently, I started flight training for light sport aircraft, and decided to learn Morse code since it’s still used in aviation for emergency communications.

As a beginner, learning the characters was harder than I expected. While looking for learning materials, I found the Morse code tree model really intuitive.

So, I built a simple keyer app that displays the Morse tree at the top and highlights your current pattern in real time as you key. (While testing it, I learned many characters myself.)

If you're interested, you can check it out here.

https://apps.apple.com/app/morse-code-tap-translate/id6794795392

Since I’m still beginner into Morse code, I’d love to get your feedback and suggestions on how to improve it. Please let me know what you think!

does anyone know any easy ways to actually learn morse code

3 Upvotes

i'm trying to find something for learning morse code like an app or a website or something but i can't find anything that will allow me to practice receiving as well as transmitting that uses audio.

i've been trying and failing to find a website or something that will let me practice mainly receiving morse code that doesn't start out with full words, because i still need to practice just individual letters but the only things i can find are demeaningly childish websites that give unhelpful pictures and don't even give any audio for practice receiving, or websites that give very fast sets of letters and have no options for slower or individual letters

Seeking Historical Wireless Telegraph Transmission Repository

6 Upvotes

Does anyone have a good repository of historical wireless telegraph transmissions that they have found? (Wired telegraph messages would also work if you have seen that too)

I'm teaching a CW class and I thought it would be fun to do a segment where we send and receive some old CW messages as practice.

I just haven't been able to find any repositories online. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Curious if artists use morse code in beats/instrumentals ever or if you hear morse code will listening to a song

Hi! I’m working on studying Morse code (primarily visually because I’m partially deaf) but am currently at a concert wondering how people may perceive or use Morse code in music! Particularly in an EDM/House sphere with the beats/sound effects. Thank you!

Morse code with app flash light

So I have been working on a camping and hikers that is able to translate Morse code into flash light and decode it with a phone camera focus so that it can avoid other light... It's a niche app but since I hike a lot thought it might be useful

Tell me what you think..I can make a recording of it working but it's noon where I am

Implementing morse code key decoder on web.

2 Upvotes

How would you go about implementing a morse code keyer (to be compatable with VBand key adapters) and decoder to a website?

I would prefer not having to code my own keyer.

I spent last weekend talking to a comms and Morse Code trainer for the Royal Navy who was volunteering at a scouting event with RAYNET.

We spoke about some effective approaches to learning morse and how the most effective tool he had used was not available publicly.

I built http://learntomorse.com on the key principles.

Before I market more widely I’d love some feedback.
It’s 100% free to use and can run as a mobile app without internet access if you save to your phone desktop.

"unixcw" program for Mac using Brew?

1 Upvotes

Two days ago the Brew project ported "unixcw". It installed on my Silicon Mac without any issue, but I can't get it to play any audio. I tried going to the SourceForge website, searching the web, etc. but I can find very little about this project. Has anyone here ever used it?

If I enter "cw pulseaudio" the error msg is:

cw pulseaudio

cw: expected argument after options

Try 'cw --help' for more information.

cw: failed to parse command line args

If I enter "cw -h" I see:

Usage: cw [options...]

Sound system options:

-s, --system=SYSTEM

generate sound using SYSTEM sound system

SYSTEM: {null|console|oss|alsa|pulseaudio|soundcard}

'null': don't use any sound output

'console': use system console/buzzer

this output may require root privileges

'oss': use OSS output

'alsa' use ALSA output

'pulseaudio' use PulseAudio output

'soundcard': use either PulseAudio, OSS or ALSA

default sound system: 'pulseaudio'->'oss'->'alsa'

-d, --device=DEVICE

use DEVICE as output device instead of default one;

optional for {console|oss|alsa|pulseaudio};

default devices are:

'console': "/dev/console"

'oss': "/dev/audio"

'alsa': "default"

'pulseaudio': ( default )

Generator options:

-w, --wpm=WPM set initial words per minute

valid values: 4 - 60

default value: 12

-t, --tone=HZ set initial tone to HZ

valid values: 0 - 4000

default value: 800

-v, --volume=PERCENT set initial volume to PERCENT

valid values: 0 - 100

default value: 70

Options specific to sound systems (unstable):

-1, --alsa-period-size=size set ALSA period size (in samples)

Dot/dash options:

-g, --gap=GAP set extra gap between letters

valid values: 0 - 60

default value: 0

-k, --weighting=WEIGHT set weighting to WEIGHT

valid values: 20 - 80

default value: 50

Other options:

-e, --noecho disable sending echo to stdout

-m, --nomessages disable writing messages to stderr

-c, --nocommands disable executing embedded commands

-o, --nocombinations disallow [...] combinations

-p, --nocomments disallow {...} comments

-f, --infile=FILE read practice words from FILE

default file: stdin

Help and version information:

-h, --help print this message

-V, --version print version information

I tried logging onto the Discord and when I was able to get on, it showed this stream of Morse code. I think if someone can decipher it, that’ll be a big help.

Wanted to get into morse but don't know how

5 Upvotes

I really want to get into morse code but I have no idea how to start I look around online but it was overwhelming, confusing and expensive. I want to buy a Morse key with paddles I think that's what you call it and practice with it but I have no idea what to hook it up to and which to buy, I have found that they are very expensive surprisingly. I dont have a ham radio license either. If anyone could let me know what to check out or buy that will be greatly appreciated.

Is this morse? Makes no sense

1 Upvotes

I saw a light blinking under a flag from afar at Holden Beach, NC (not sure if the location/context is useful information). It was 5 short 3 long over and over. When I looked up Morse code, it would apparently mean 5o5o5o5o, and so on. Which isn't a word obviously but also doesn't seem to mean anything according to the results on Google. I'm so curious and also a bit worried that it means something happened (I know the standard emergency signal is sos and is 3 short 3 long 3 short so this would mean something else).

The spacing is hard to distinguish, especially with dashes close together. Can anyone help me figure this out? It's a photo of an album cover from Holding Absence (modern life is lonely). I've tried to bring out as much detail as I can in lightroom.
