MorseKOB
is a program I developed for doing landline telegraphy and American
Morse with the help of a computer. I’ve used it
both as a practice tool while learning the code and as a way
of communicating in Morse with experienced operators over
the Internet. While using the program I’ve met some
great people on “the wire”.
