  2. Morse code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morse_code

    This Morse key was originally used by Gotthard railway, later by a shortwave radio amateur [2] Morse code is a method used in telecommunication to encode text characters as standardized sequences of two different signal durations, called dots and dashes, or dits and dahs. [3] [4] Morse code is named after Samuel Morse, one of the early ...

  3. Morse code mnemonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morse_code_mnemonics

    Morse code mnemonics are systems to represent the sound of Morse characters in a way intended to be easy to remember. Since every one of these mnemonics requires a two-step mental translation between sound and character, none of these systems are useful for using manual Morse at practical speeds. Amateur radio clubs can provide resources to ...

  4. Morse code for non-Latin alphabets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morse_code_for_non-Latin...

    The Greek B though, is identical to the English B as far as the glyph is concerned, even though the sound of Greek B is the same as the sound of English V (like the v in word victory). The B prevails to V. The Greek Morse code alphabet uses one extra letter for Greek letter Χ and no longer uses the codes for Latin letters "J", "U" and "V".

  5. Standard Arabic Technical Transliteration System - Wikipedia

    That same Morse code sequence represents the letter U in the Latin alphabet. Hence the SATTS equivalent for ţā' is U. In the Morse-code era, when Arabic language Morse signals were copied down by non-Arab code clerks, the text came out in SATTS. Text in SATTS was also automatically produced when teleprinters reproduced Arabic text, if the ...

  6. Allied military phonetic spelling alphabets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allied_military_phonetic...

    The Allied military phonetic spelling alphabets prescribed the words that are used to represent each letter of the alphabet, when spelling other words out loud, letter-by-letter, and how the spelling words should be pronounced for use by the Allies of World War II. They are not a "phonetic alphabet" in the sense in which that term is used in ...

  7. Signal lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_lamp

    Signal lamp training during World War II. A signal lamp (sometimes called an Aldis lamp or a Morse lamp) is a visual signaling device for optical communication by flashes of a lamp, typically using Morse code. The idea of flashing dots and dashes from a lantern was first put into practice by Captain Philip Howard Colomb, of the Royal Navy, in 1867.

  8. World War II cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_cryptography

    World War II cryptography. Cryptography was used extensively during World War II because of the importance of radio communication and the ease of radio interception. The nations involved fielded a plethora of code and cipher systems, many of the latter using rotor machines. As a result, the theoretical and practical aspects of cryptanalysis, or ...

  9. American Morse code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Morse_code

    American Morse code. American Morse Code — also known as Railroad Morse—is the latter-day name for the original version of the Morse Code developed in the mid-1840s, by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail for their electric telegraph. The "American" qualifier was added because, after most of the rest of the world adopted " International Morse Code ...
