Dots and dashes are the crux of my quandary. It gets hard to tell which is a

strength. Thanks for the reference.

Well, if you can copy down the dots and dashes and look up a few letters

you can
use the following site:

Note that further down on that page is a site to look up US beacons.

just a
beacon. I,m not hip to long wave.
