A large number of people are unable to read Morse but are interested in copying these signals. A Morse decoder gives them access to the world of dots and dashes. This type of Morse decoder converts Morse signals to normal characters. In principle, any microcomputer can be provided with a small hardware interface and a Morse decoder program, allowing it to be used for this purpose. This article describes a universal Morse interface and a powerful decoder program for the Junior Computer. Decoding Morse signals As most people know, a Morse signal con- sists of dots and dashes. However, the intervals between the dots and dashes are also ...
