“HELLO” in Morse Code
···· · ·−·· ·−·· −−−
The classic first transmission. Real operators rarely sent HELLO though — on air they open with CQ (seek you), the general call inviting anyone listening to answer. HELLO is where learners start; CQ is where operators begin.
Letter by letter
H ···· E · L ·−·· L ·−·· O −−−
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.
