Update:- Finally a program is available Here
Was chatting in the Mobitopia chat room earlier today and I mentioned the fact I am aiming to do and get an Amateur Radio license.
For part of the Amateur License there is a Morse Code part. What I want is a program for my phone so I can practise Morse Code.
- Some of the features could include:-
- Left/Right soft keys for Dots and Dashes (Dits and Dahs)
- Alternative text input (i.e. for Txt Msgs)
- Game mode to practice letters with increasing difficulty
- Variable speed (XX WPM (words per minute))
- Variable letter length (0-30secs to practise for ShortWave)
- When in background plays pressed letters as Morse
It possible this will never get made, but I have to at least put the idea out so if anybody does see potential in this, it may get created.
Might also be interesting to use Morse to send SMS messages — on my Nokia 3650, I hate the keypad, it would be much nicer to use one or two of the buttons for tapping-out morse.
I’ve just knocked up a very simple for Series 60 prototype for tapping in some Morse and then sending it via SMS. Get it here 🙂
