    I worked as a marine radio operator at the tale end of the era. Learned morse at 20wpm. 40wpm by the time it became redundant in the early 90s. Breaks the language barrier and was the backbone of safety of life at sea communications before satellite systems. Still fun to play at it.

      +AlienElysium In 1943 my dad was the radio op on a Navy PBY plane that hit a mountain then crashed on the Greenland icecap. In the split seconds between the first impact and the final crash, he sent a short emergency locator using Morse code, which was picked up by an alert operator at the base. He and the other 6 crew were all pulled off the mountain, alive, 13 days later, because of that coded message - which had to be sent and received right. Otherwise, he would have died, and I never would have been born.

That having bene sad, it was designed for them to learn quickly, mnemonics are just an added plus in learning.

    I was taught Morse Code in 1954 at Keesler Air Force Base. The instructor had many little ways of impressing the sound in our minds. Examples: the letter L = is di dah di dit or to L with it. D = dah di dit or Dah did it, Z = dah dah di dit or dah dah did it. Q = dah dah di dah or pay day to day. P = (phonetic was peter) di dah dah dit or the girls love it. These little aids helped us learn the complete alphabet in roughly 30 hours. 65 years later I can still copy morse code at a speed of 15 words per minute. Its like knowing another language.

And press whatever letter of your choice. Kinda cool

    My father was a Navy Signalman during World War II. This would be using Morse Lamp.
    He said that operators used to "compete" with each other-- that by putting your lamp flashing down at the start of a message, the sender was to send as fast as he could.
    The implication was that the receiver could handle anything that the sender could throw at him, at any speed.

      Yes Matija, I'm convinced it's much younger than people imagine... The HD quality was simply impossible during that era. I'm guessing 2005 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Me and my friends used tapping in exam to communicate and exchange answers. But the teachers knew the trick, they sit at desk between students and they also tapped under the table, intensely, to interfere all our communication. We were confused with all that noises in the signal.

    (After a Morse code message came in.)
    Moe-"What'd it say?"
    Curly-"Ehh, eh. eh, eh. ehh, eh, eh..." *SLAP!*
    Moe-"Ah, shut up! What'd that mean?"
    Larry-"Ahh ah ah, ah ahh..."
    Moe-"You, too?!" *SLAP!*

    Us old guys had to learn international morse for a HAM license. As the video points out it has two lengths of spaces between dots and dashes making up a letters. For a real challenge learn railroad morse which has three lengths of spaces. For example, in RR morse, dot small space dot is "i", dot medium space dot is "o", dot long space dot is "e e". With the fading in and out of a radio signal one can imagine why the railroad morse was discarded in favor of the simpler to hear and copy international system. Many old railroad telegraphers could easily send and receive at 40 to 60 wpm. Train orders, having to be absolutely correct, were repeated back after copied.

    fascinating - clear and easy to understand teaching style - These are the good old times !
    I`m digging for the morse knowledge after not having used it for 45 years.
    Now revival for mobile emercency radio communication and education of ,,preppers,, here in Germany (black forest).
    The Youngsters dont have a glue how it works .. they are only used to their mobile phones which will be cut off in case of civil war (Invasion of Moslems and subsequent riots here)
    Thanks for uploading ! .. and many greetings from the dark german woods

    so the telegraph works by slashes and dots , there is an alphebet of them to learn, also to use it you need to note it down and translate it to see what it says . The morse code was named by Samuel Morse, so it was called "morse code". Morse ma morse code because his wife was very sick and he tried to get in contact with her but it was too late because she was dead and already baried. To make it he was helped by a young man intrested in his progect, ( btw he was an artist but always had science at the top of his mind) . Morse code is also used for difrently abled people , have you ever been in a place were there was wierd dots and slashes belive it or not it was MORSE CODE!
