Morse Code -plus- Continuous Wave (CW) Radio Transmission -and- Semaphore Signals ? Do They Defining Amateur Radio ?

You can hear the change in noise as a carrier goes on and off. It's extremely difficult to copy high speed CW like that if the signal is strong, but a weak signal or slower CW is just as easy to copy as noise as it is to copy as a pure tone. T1 doesn't mean uncopyable, it just means ragged tone. |

So now amateurs and SWL's should be Morse code proficient not only using tones but using the swishing sound made when a BFO is not present? -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp |

The tone it's coming in with doesn't make much difference. I've copied signals so weak that they were just changes in the quality of the noise and I've copied perfect S9++T9 signals. They were all mostly R9. The R only changes if the signal fades completely out or if there's interference that masks the signal. Try that with PSK. |

The swishing sound is coming from aliens. Try making the same sounds back to them. You might get a more intelligent conversation going than the one in this cross posted thread. -- Telamon Ventura, California |
