Morse Code

Although cellphones and SMS have pretty much made Morse Code moribund - its most popular current use is probably by amateur radio operators - this is a sub-category dedicated to the dots 'n dashes of the code that was invented by Samuel F.B. Morse in 1838. Find out "What is the most famous distress signal in Morse Code?" or "How do you communicate using Morse Code?

How does using dashes affect the reader?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Using dashes can help to emphasize information or create a pause in the sentence, drawing the reader's attention to specific details. However, overusing dashes can disrupt the flow of the text and make it harder for readers to follow the main ideas. It's important to use dashes judiciously to enhance clarity and effectiveness in writing.

How does Morse code work and what is it?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Morse code is a method of communication using dots and dashes to represent letters and numbers. Each letter and number has a unique combination of dots and dashes. It was developed by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail in the 1830s for use with telegraph systems. Morse code can be transmitted using sound, light, or written symbols.

It depends what kind of code. If you want to enter a cheat code there is no such thing. If you want to enter a gift code to become a superstar then all you have to do is this.... 1) buy a gift code (if you bought one already make sure you have printed it out of wrote it down) 2) Click the become superstar button. You can find this link anywhere. its is yellow. 3) When you get to the become superstar page click on the gift code link. 4) enter your gift code

How did Morse finance testing the telegraph?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

He convinced Congress to appropriate money for an outdoor test line between Baltimore, Maryland and Washington, D.C. The first official telegraph message was, "What hath God wrought." The telegraph quickly became more than a toy-the Baltimore test line was used in 1844 to send news of Henry Clay's nomination for president from the National Whig Convention in Baltimore to Washington, D.C.

Where is 0041 code used?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Telephone country codes never begin with zero.

Country code +41, dialed as 00 41 from many places, is Switzerland.

Country code +1, dialed as 004 1 from many places, is North America, including the USA, Canada, and various Caribbean-ish islands.

To avoid confusion, it is best to write an international telephone number in correct international format, beginning with the plus symbol and the correct telephone country code (e.g., +41 or +1), omitting any dialing prefix.

(The plus signmeans "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)
+41 is Switzerland

Where did Morse code start?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The land telegraph was invented by Samuel F. B. Morse, in the 1830s I think. He built this thing that when a button was pushed at one place, it could cause a clacker to go clack at the other end of a wire many miles long. In order to send information over it, he invented a code of clacks for each letter of the alphabet ... which he modestly called Morse's Code.

What would happen to the world if Morse code wasn't invented?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Who knows? Ships everywhere would be doomed! Morse code required a human ear to interpret the received code since a lot of analysis was needed by he human brain in order to decipher the code.

Machines reading Morse code struggled until advanced electronics could cope with the varying length of each character. The telegraphic 5 unit Baudot code used in telegrams and telexes standardised the code so that every letter and number consisted of an equal length.This simplified the decoding to a point where relays and mechanisms could decode and print the received signal.

To answer your question ? They would have come up with something better. It triumphed because it was first on the scene.

-------------------------Advantages-----------------------------------------------------Disadvantages-------------

  • Useful if radio or other technical communicants are compromised.
  • No expensive equipment, just flags and a pair of binoculars
  • Only trained individuals can understand the message making secure.
  • It is cheap to set up the equipment needed to work it.
  • It is universally understood by operators in all countries.
  • Messages can be sent in Morse code in three basic forms; signaling involving the transmission of pressure, the transmission of light or radio waves.
  • People need to be trained to operate the equipment and to use and translate it.
  • It requires line of sight which can be hard to find in bad weathers.
  • It is time consuming to send, receive and translate the messages.
  • Morse code is slow and cumbersome compared with modern communication.
  • You cannot be 100% sure that the recipient will understand Morse code.
  • It is easily to misread the message as the difference between the length of signals identifying letters and words is very small.
  • It is slow to use compared to talking over a telephone.

What did Morse code change?

Asked by Wiki User

Morse code has improved communication in a lot of ways. Here are just several of the benefits of Morse code out of a whole lot of others:

  • In aviation pilots use radio navigation aids. They usually emit a short set of station identification letters in Morse code in order to ensure that the stations they're using is in good service.
  • The International Morse code is a favourite with amateur radio operators, as they can quickly key a transmitter on and off (also referred to as 'continous wave' or 'CW').
  • Morse code can be used as a signal for help (SOS).
  • Morse code has also helped many people with disabilities to communicate.
