Morse code - text to MP3 and learn morse code! LISTEN DECODE AND WIN!

Img413 1132-1
Steve has a really fun morse code site, you can get podcasts of quotations in morse code (for learning) and convert text to morse code and get them back in MP3 format - Link.

So! Here's a MP3 I made, the FIRST Maker to post up what it says in the comments wins a limited edition Pocket Ref. Go go go! (Rate = 5, Farnsworth Rate = 15, Tone Frequency = 1000) - Listen, decode and win! (Click here for MP3).

UPDATE: WE HAVE A WINNER - Takato got it in record time... it says "Drink more ovaltine".

NOOOOOO! I lost by practically a few seconds!

Darn, I missed by mere seconds.

I cheated. I looked at the sound file in Audacity and then used an online morse code converter.

The submit process seems really screwed up. How come both Takato and I say we missed by seconds?


Posted by: Takato on September 26, 2006 at 7:18 PM

Submit's still going really slow.

Even after 20 years I can still copy most of that and fill in the blanks with the rest. Morse code isn't dead!
