Learn Your Name in Morse Code Day 2023

Morse telegraph key    
January 11 brings us National Learn Your Name in Morse Code Day. It is a day to visit the world of telecommunications consisting of encoded messages consisting of dits and dahs, i.e., dashes and dots.

The primary hardware used for this process is called a "Morse Key" and is used for communication either to or from the operator. The evolution of the methodology has brought a full range of character sets into use.

Nowadays, it is primarily the purview of ham radio operators is amateur and ham radio operators.

I never really delved into the realm of Morse Code being a product of the digital age.

This analog technology was outdated prior to my arrival on the technology scene.

I dare say Morse Code remains useful given situations where it is warranted and I would never belittle anyone who wanted to learn it.

When China hits us with that big EMP they're planning and kills every computer in the United States because of the weak leadership inspired by the criminal democrat thugs in our midst you will be glad to have something else upon which to fall back.

Something which cannot be taken out quite so easily.

Happy Learn Your Name in Morse Code Day.
