Frequently Asked Questions

Morse code is a character encoding system that represents letters, numbers, and punctuation as sequences of dots (short signals) and dashes (long signals). Invented by Samuel Morse in the 1830s, it was widely used for telegraph and radio communication.

Each character maps to a unique pattern of dots and dashes. A dot lasts one time unit, a dash lasts three units. Spaces between symbols are one unit, between letters three units, and between words seven units. For example, 'A' is '.-' (dot-dash).

Yes! This tool generates authentic Morse code audio using the Web Audio API. Click Play to hear your encoded message. Adjust the speed (WPM) and pitch to customize the sound.

WPM stands for Words Per Minute. It measures transmission speed based on the word 'PARIS' (50 time units). At 20 WPM, a dot lasts 60ms. Higher WPM means faster transmission. Beginners start at 5-10 WPM, experts reach 40+ WPM.

This converter supports all English letters (A-Z), numbers (0-9), and common punctuation including period, comma, question mark, apostrophe, exclamation, slash, parentheses, ampersand, colon, semicolon, equals, plus, minus, underscore, quotation marks, dollar sign, and at sign.

Enter Morse code in the bottom panel using dots (.) and dashes (-). Separate letters with spaces and words with slashes (/) or multiple spaces. The tool auto-detects and converts to plain text instantly.

Yes! While rarely used for mainstream communication, Morse code remains in amateur radio (ham radio), aviation (NDB beacons), military communication, accessibility devices for people with disabilities, and as an emergency signaling method (SOS: ... --- ...).

International Morse (ITU standard, used here) uses only dots and dashes with standardized timing. American Morse, used on early telegraph lines, had longer pauses and spaced dots. International Morse became the global standard for radio communication.
