Frequently Asked Questions
What is Morse code?
Morse code is a method of encoding text characters as standardized sequences of dots (short signals) and dashes (long signals). It was developed in the 1830s for telegraph communication and is still used today in aviation, amateur radio, and assistive technology.
Can this converter handle numbers and symbols?
Yes! This converter supports the full international Morse code standard: letters A-Z, numbers 0-9, and common punctuation including period, comma, question mark, slash, and more.
How do I use the audio playback?
Once you have Morse code in the output box, click the speaker (🔈) button. Your browser will play the dots and dashes as audio tones — a short beep for each dot, a longer beep for each dash.
How do I separate words in Morse code?
Use a forward slash (/) between words. For example: HELLO WORLD becomes .... . .-.. .-.. --- / .-- --- .-. .-.. -..
Is Morse code still used today?
Yes! Morse code remains in use for aviation navigation aids (VOR/NDB identifiers), amateur radio enthusiasts, emergency signaling (SOS), and as an accessibility tool for people with certain disabilities.
