“88” in Morse Code

Number code for "love and kisses" — the affectionate cousin of 73, traditionally sent to (and by) operators’ sweethearts. Two identical characters back to back give it an unmistakable doubled rhythm: −−−·· −−−··.

Letter by letter

The timing that makes it Morse: a dash lasts exactly three dots. The gap inside a letter is one dot long, the gap between letters is three, and the slash marks a seven-unit word gap. Want to hear it slower or flash it as light? Open it in the morse code translator.
