MORSE CODE – SIGNALING
MORSE CODE – SIGNALING
The Morse Code consists of dots and lines that can be transmitted by acoustic signals, lights, visual or with the arms.
Currently the Morse Code is rarely used but can be useful to have on hand the table of the dear old Morse Code. Still exist all over the world especially in marine and aviation, people who have studied this and who know this alphabet. Also a message in Morse could be picked up by some radio-amateur.
The DOT • is a signal of short duration = 1 SECOND
The DASH – equivalent to three dots = 3 SECONDS

Printable version of Morse Code:
CALL SIGN: Repeat “A” letter (• —) continuously until there is no answer.
SIGNAL RESPONSE: “T” Letter (—) repeated.
CONFIRMATION OF PHRASE OR WORD: “T” Letter (—).
S O S • • • — • • • International EMERGENCY distress signal (Save Our Souls)
AR • — • — • Stop (end of message or signal)
AS • — • • • Waiting for 10 seconds
K — • — Invitation to transmit (OK, go ahead)
KA/CT — • — • — Attention, transmission start
KN — • — — • Invitation for named station to transmit. Other stations await.
VA/SK • • • — • — End
BT — • • • — Separator
SN • • • — • Understood
In case of an error in communication repeat the E letter minimum 6 times:
• • • • • • • • ERROR, follow the correct word (code from six to eight dots means error).
