“GOODBYE” in Morse Code
−−· −−− −−− −·· −··· −·−− ·
Operators seldom spell it out. A contact traditionally ends with SK (···−·−, sent as one sign) — "end of work" — or 73 for warmth. Sending the full word GOODBYE marks you as a newcomer, which is exactly why learners love it.

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.
