Morse Code

Gravdigr · 09-03-2015, 02:08 PM

As of a few years ago most short wave radio stations still used Morse code in station identification, while still broadcasting the program. Takes literally less than a second a lot of times, and comes in such a fast burst that you need a decoder.

A little FYI: People who used to use Morse to communicate (ham radio operators, for instance), could identify the person sending code by the word rate, and recognizing the unique techniques of specific individuals. Your individual traits were known as your 'fist'. As in, "Hey there's Bob on the key, I'd know his fist anywhere."
