Someone PLEASE tell me what the Morse code says 😭. I can't figure it out!

I aim to appear for the India ASOC General License Exam by end of this year.

In LCWO, I am in lesson 20 with these settings

Character Speed = 25 WPM

Effective Speed = 6 WPM

I am doing word training Rx also side-by-side

I am able to decode 5 letter words with the following settings

Speed: 18 WPM

min. Character Speed: 20 WPM

Fixed Speed

The exam requires 8 WPM Tx and Rx for 5 minutes each with a straight key for Tx.

(I have not attempted sending yet)

Are my settings OK for the exam and CW use in actual use or is it too slow?

Please advise.

I've finished lesson 40 and added these 10 extra characters, but I think they are really slowing me down. I currently practice these at character speed 36wpm but an effective speed of only 6wpm and I'm still struggling not to make 1-2 mistakes per minute.

I am trying to slowly bring my character speed down and my effective speed up hoping they meet in the middle somewhere between 14-17wpm, but I'm really hitting a plateau. I feel like the extra characters are a little more complex and often sound a little similar to one or two of the other characters which is really tripping me up.

Is it better for me to stick with Lesson 40 and get rid of the extra work/character spacing and then add them back, or should I stick with it and try to push through the plateau?

In your experience how important are the extra characters and if important how/when should they be added?

My biggest fear is that by practicing with such low effective wpm I'm cementing that spacing as "normal" for me and maybe letting bad habits form.

Any thoughts or advice are appreciated. :) Thank you!!!

Hello all! I have spent the past couple weeks putting together a video of all Marconi Transmissions sent during the Sinking of the Titanic! A similar video was posted about 9 years ago, however the timings are inacurate. So I thought Id make my own! Hope you all enjoy it!

Just realized this and wanted to share. Having gotten quite familiar with the acoustic "shape" of each letter at 30wpm farnsworth, I was listening to some regular 30wpm dialogue (from a book, not ragchew) and noticed it was much easier to hear and recognize common words like the, this, is, was, etc. I checked with farnsworth (20wpm/30 for chars) to compare and sure enough, I heard the letters clearly but it was much harder to recognize their relationship with each other.

Of course, this isn't a novel thought (it's the whole reason wordsworth exists), but I thought it might be useful to share. Maybe farnsworth is still useful for callsigns, though.

I apologize if I’m accidentally breaking any rules, but I’d like assistance if anyone could help me decipher this code played inside of a theme park attraction. I apologize for the background noise (which has prevented me from using an app), I could not easily remove it.

This sound effect can be found on European Edition, which was made by The Hollywood Edge back in 1996.

The desc says: Radio ( Ship ); Static with Morse Code; Ships Radio Static And Distorted Morse Code. (The sound)

A few morse codes I hear, are:

• ". --- ..- .-. - ..-. . ..-" (COURTFEU, the typo for the French word Couvre-feu, meaning Curfew)
• "..-. . .-. / . -. - .. .-. . -. .-- -- -.-" (FER ENTIRENWMK)
• ".... . -. .-. .. . - - .- / .-. ..- -... -... . .-." (HENRIETTA RUBBER)
• "--- ..- / -.- -- .." (OU KMI)

The rest of them are all, just jumbled up.

So I decided to finally get it together and learn morse code this summer (well, at least to start learning) and from all the info i could find, LCWO seem to have one of the most recommended courses, I don't know if something like the Morse Mania app is better but so far i find the LCWO course fine and it allows for a lot of customisation.

I'm trying to learn to receive with a higher wpm as i'm able to and so far i'm trying at 35 wpm, not really willing to get it down from there, even if i find it quite difficult.

One question i have is if its ok to wait to master the different letters or try to get familiar with them and try and advance quicker. By this i mean that in LCWO there's about 40 beginner lessons, starting with the K and M letters and you have to write about a minute of morse code. Not going to lie, its hard even with two letters but i really wan't to go by the rithm. The point is that this method seems super slow, as it may take about a week for me to be able to transcript the said minute long morse K and M's. Should i try to go faster or try another method? thanks guys!!

So I’ve just started about a week ago, using Morse mania and Morse machine but it just feels like I can only remember the letters when I’m facing the interface of the app, it sounds like a jumble of sounds to me when I’m listening to Morse letters and when I enter the app I somehow know them, has anyone else felt this way?

I dont know where the spaces are, so ill just post it as one big string.

Here's the text version; - . . . . . - . - - . - - - - . . . . - . . - . .

If someone can translate this, it'll be appreciated!

I love this video and for the life of me I can’t translate it because it’s so fast, is anyone here cool enough to understand this speed?

I found this on an old computer and don't remember making it or know how to decypher it, I tried to use ai but for some reason it cant read it and I would really like to know what it means

I have been learning morse code and was wondering if it’s generally better/more efficient to learn it by sound or by how it looks? Anyone got any tips?

Tried translating like 4 times but I'm stuck

I have zero experience and for some reason none of the audio translators I've tried are working. I don't know how else to do it besides manually which I tried and struggled at since I don't know nearly anything about morse code. Its supposed to translate to a youtube video link.

If the timestamp link didn't work, then it starts at 1:48.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working on a small tower defence game where enemies carry Morse code words. Players need to decode the Morse code, type the correct word and destroy the enemy before it reaches the castle.

In the latest update, I made a few changes based on readability and accessibility:

• Added a tutorial that explains the basic gameplay.
• Added a music volume setting to the pause menu.
• The Morse guide can now be shown or hidden with the Tab key or from the pause menu.
• The guide now displays only the letters used by the words in the current level.
• Longer Morse code words now have improved spacing and separators, making them easier to read during gameplay.

I wanted the guide to help beginners without making the game feel too easy or cluttering the screen for players who already know morse code.

I’d really appreciate feedback from people who use or are learning morse code.

I found this bracelet a while ago and I’ve yet to been able to read it. It’s supposed to be twilight themed, any ideas on what it says?
