[tityus]

Interesting method. Thanks

One of these days I'll face it heads on.

Hi, two of our lads are not getting the YE beacon from our map. It has only one carrier and an NDB. They can tune the NDB but then get No Beacon with additional tuning. We have all added the SendMorseAsText=1. The rest of the squad is working just fine. Can receive the YE carrier beacon and the Code print to screen works fine.
Thanks,

Years ago I had to learn Morse, here are some tips I was told to help.

Start with the easy ones, we all know SOS … _ _ _ …

Then the 1 and 2 dot dashes

E .
T _
I ..
M _ _

N _ . and A . _ are symmetrical

The the 3s
O and S we already know ^

K _ . _ and R . _ . are "inverse" of each other

U . . _ and G _ _ . again Inverse also U sounds like V (later)

W . _ _ and D _ . . inverse D also = DAD did it

The 4s can be the easiest, you have longer to think about it

C _ . _ . think CHAR lie CHAR lie (capitals = dash say these long. small = dot)
F . . _ . did it HURT you (adult mind required here)
L . _ . . it HURT like ell
Y _ . _ _ YO ko HA MA

leaves

X _ . . _ and P . _ _ . inverse

H . . . .

and my favorite V . . . _ dum dum dum DUMMM from the longest day film

Z _ _ . .

B _ . . . and J . _ _ _

have I missed any?


Hope that helps some. Best to learn it in pairs of letters and get use to the "sound" of it

Cheers Moby

If there is only one carrier then there will only be one beacon is the way I understand it. Not quite sure what you mean when you say 'additional tuning'.

I guess that's a typo 'SendMorseAsText' rather than ShowMorseAsText?

Random historical fact; one RAF trainee went temporarily crazy trying to learn morse code for his navigators training. They eventually found him in a shed near the airfield, talking to himself in morse! Poor chap.
