Even though morse code is an outdated form of communication, I still feel like it’s a good thing to learn in case there are emergencies where there is no other form of communication, or just for plain old fun.
it is also the only form of communications that can not be jammed. the claim is made for frequency skip, but it is untested as far as me personally having knowledge of it working. this is the same technology clinton sold to the taliban.

I was thinking this. But teacher can ask you "why are you doing this joshua?" and you answer "i'm in exam and i'm learning a little bit morse code. It is too normal sensei, isn't it?" then you get A+ for you learned morse code according to teacher
Ahh the 60s army tutorial videos, never can go wrong with that, this is very informative and helpful. Makes me feel like I'm in the army training for combat in Nam.
+AlienElysium In 1943 my dad was the radio op on a Navy PBY plane that hit a mountain then crashed on the Greenland icecap. In the split seconds between the first impact and the final crash, he sent a short emergency locator using Morse code, which was picked up by an alert operator at the base. He and the other 6 crew were all pulled off the mountain, alive, 13 days later, because of that coded message - which had to be sent and received right. Otherwise, he would have died, and I never would have been born.
+Chris R That is the deepest thing I've heard this week... I will never forget this little, insignificant message found in the corners of the Internet.
I couldn't imagine being in the Army back then trying to learn Morse code all the while knowing you're going to get shipped out to war or a demilitarized zone, Talk about pressure! maybe that's why they threw the humor in these films
I love the examples they used "Romeo couldn't care less" On the other hand, this is a very interesting video and I actually learned something unlike every other youtube tutorial.
thing is, these old army training flms were made with an eye towards teaching the the most ardent idiot that they could get at a recruitment depot, and training them to be signal ops. That having bene sad, it was designed for them to learn quickly, mnemonics are just an added plus in learning.
very good coaching. I was once a navy Radio operator . Thank You sir, please promote more of this program become it become diminished with the modern technology
Very interesting- would love to learn this. Was looking up Morse code to make a Morse coded bracelet. Now I actually would love to learn how to to send codes. Great instructor by the way, humorous yet great tips that make total sense, yet really important.
+coffee table Ha - the guy in the movie could have been my dad - he taught radio in the Navy for decades - the then he taught me. I was "ROFL" at the dead-pan humor... JUST like my dad... I loved it. Guess you didn't have the benefit of growing up with a bridge into the 1930s and 40s at your doorstep:-)
My bridge was into the 50s and 60s, with grandparents who seasoned me with 20s-40s nostalgia...and I loved this. This video had to be early 60s or at least late 50s ... Good stuff.
I was taught Morse Code in 1954 at Keesler Air Force Base. The instructor had many little ways of impressing the sound in our minds. Examples: the letter L = is di dah di dit or to L with it. D = dah di dit or Dah did it, Z = dah dah di dit or dah dah did it. Q = dah dah di dah or pay day to day. P = (phonetic was peter) di dah dah dit or the girls love it. These little aids helped us learn the complete alphabet in roughly 30 hours. 65 years later I can still copy morse code at a speed of 15 words per minute. Its like knowing another language.
+clonetrooperx39 And just think, being able to interpret and construct these dots and dahs correctly has sometimes been a matter of life or death. I bet I'd learn it quite well.
My best friend and I do Morse to communicate during lessons and especially during exams and exchange answers. We don't tap, we show one finger for dot and two for dash. Of course you must be able to see each other, but that's easy to arrange.
Im really suprised that the letter E is the shortest, because we use it the most. Just shows hom much thought went into morse code. Also, if you want to see which letter is used the most on the tab you are on now. Simply hit CTRL and F, which brings up a search tab. Press E in the search tab, and see how many hits that got. And press whatever letter of your choice. Kinda cool
Only problem with this is that it’s heavily reliant upon the messenger relaying it correctly and the recipient doing proper translation. If either goes wrong (especially in times of war) shit hits the fan 😂
This is hellishly difficult for me. I would have to train for months, and even then I would only be able to perceive it. Producing it requires perfect brain-hand coordination, absolute precision, nerves of steel, and other beautiful things I _never_ had.
Oh, it's not that bad! I transmit and receive messages with some friends regularly on my amateur radio, you really do pick this up with experience. Telegraph operators were usually in their early 20s!
In our school Radio Club it took us a year to get Morse code in our heads. Old time telegraph operators needed 4-5 months to learn Morse code on the key. It definitely has to be learned.
my dad (air force) was an expert telegrapher. he said you could immediately tell who you were talking to just by the rhythm of the sender. he also told me they made extensive use of "q codes". i wish he had gotten in to that.
My father was a Navy Signalman during World War II. This would be using Morse Lamp. He said that operators used to "compete" with each other-- that by putting your lamp flashing down at the start of a message, the sender was to send as fast as he could. The implication was that the receiver could handle anything that the sender could throw at him, at any speed.
My great grandpa thought us how to use morse code and even now we still use it my cousins live 3 blocks away we connect we use morse code to contact each other and we promise to teach our children soon and tell them to keep teaching morse code to their childrens children
Brings back memories of when I was in the Signal Corp as a Radio teletype operator, and we had to use CW (code) one week out of 3 since we would operate Teletype one week than switch to Audio one week and CW one week just to keep our skills as sharp as possible.
i like that this is sorta aligned with music because music is a language already of itself and using morse should sound similar to music as a musician, i am mind blown music is not all about rhythm and emotion, but it's also math numbers are used in music to produce it in the notes
This reminds me of the Three Stooges short, "Spook Louder." (After a Morse code message came in.) Moe-"What'd it say?" Curly-"Ehh, eh. eh, eh. ehh, eh, eh..." *SLAP!* Moe-"Ah, shut up! What'd that mean?" Larry-"Ahh ah ah, ah ahh..." Moe-"You, too?!" *SLAP!*
The same way titanic sended distress messages to other ships. Gosh , the generation I'm living in and looking at all this give me chills. What an era that was.
Me and my friends used tapping in exam to communicate and exchange answers. But the teachers knew the trick, they sit at desk between students and they also tapped under the table, intensely, to interfere all our communication. We were confused with all that noises in the signal.
Jan 2 Until recently, I knew that noise but not the fact that it was morse code. I only learned when a ring tone in my phone was named SOS, then I heard that, and I was like, waaaaaiiitt...
so the telegraph works by slashes and dots , there is an alphebet of them to learn, also to use it you need to note it down and translate it to see what it says . The morse code was named by Samuel Morse, so it was called "morse code". Morse ma morse code because his wife was very sick and he tried to get in contact with her but it was too late because she was dead and already baried. To make it he was helped by a young man intrested in his progect, ( btw he was an artist but always had science at the top of his mind) . Morse code is also used for difrently abled people , have you ever been in a place were there was wierd dots and slashes belive it or not it was MORSE CODE!

Very informative, and funny the same time, but its curiosity brings me here, and what makes it look so serious is that the video is made in Military style
This was very nice. Not only does it just teach Morse code operation but even has tricks to help you remember and comedy. Not something I'd have expected.
Us old guys had to learn international morse for a HAM license. As the video points out it has two lengths of spaces between dots and dashes making up a letters. For a real challenge learn railroad morse which has three lengths of spaces. For example, in RR morse, dot small space dot is "i", dot medium space dot is "o", dot long space dot is "e e". With the fading in and out of a radio signal one can imagine why the railroad morse was discarded in favor of the simpler to hear and copy international system. Many old railroad telegraphers could easily send and receive at 40 to 60 wpm. Train orders, having to be absolutely correct, were repeated back after copied.
For a long time, I've had a question about sending and receiving messages via Morse Code. It doesn't seem likely that whoever is receiving a message will know exactly when the message will be sent, so that by the time the receiver is ready to listen and decode, the sender may have already transmitted entire words that the receiver will have missed. How do you get around that problem?
Im pretty sure they used the machines that printed out the message so even if you weren't able to pick up the first few letters or words you can read the transcript and decode it.
You scheduled as much as possible in advance, but obviously that doesn't work for everything especially in a military context. On ships you had a radio operator on station and that would would be a 24 hour job taken by sailors in shifts. if a mobile station (like a commander of ground forces) that can not be on air all the time because they are on the move needed to send a message to another mobile station (like their troops in the field) the commander would send the message to a 24 hour station like a ship, the 24 hour station would copy the message and then the troops in the field would eventually call to check in with the 24 hour station to see if there were any messages for them and the 24 station would then relay the message. Now days the army uses Email by satellite and are setting up their own version of discord servers :)
fascinating - clear and easy to understand teaching style - These are the good old times ! I`m digging for the morse knowledge after not having used it for 45 years. Now revival for mobile emercency radio communication and education of ,,preppers,, here in Germany (black forest). The Youngsters dont have a glue how it works .. they are only used to their mobile phones which will be cut off in case of civil war (Invasion of Moslems and subsequent riots here) Thanks for uploading ! .. and many greetings from the dark german woods

You scheduled as much as possible in advance, but obviously that doesn't work for everything especially in a military context.
On ships you had a radio operator on station and that would would be a 24 hour job taken by sailors in shifts. if a mobile station (like a commander of ground forces) that can not be on air all the time because they are on the move needed to send a message to another mobile station (like their troops in the field) the commander would send the message to a 24 hour station like a ship, the 24 hour station would copy the message and then the troops in the field would eventually call to check in with the 24 hour station to see if there were any messages for them and the 24 station would then relay the message.
